Our School Day
Our day is organised around seven 50-minute-long periods, however many lessons are 100-minute doubles. We operate split break and lunchtime, with breaks split by house and lunches split by year group. Students are expected to arrive on site by 8:20am. Breakfast is served from 8am and lessons start at 8:25am.
