For all year groups (with the exception of Year 11, who have intervention), students have a maximum of three subject lessons per day, which means they only need to pack for those lessons - helping them to stay organised and prepared.

Every day begins with a lesson, which means that arriving on time is essential - lateness results in lost learning from the very start of the day. On Fridays, the school day finishes earlier at 2:50pm.

Year 11 Intervention

In Year 11, the structure is slightly different, as students benefit from an additional daily lesson known as intervention. This is taught by our teachers, in our classrooms, and provided at no additional cost to families, giving students extra time and support to succeed in their examinations.

We have clearly structured arrival windows for each year group to ensure that the start of the day is calm, safe, and purposeful. Students are expected to arrive within their allocated time and enter through their designated gate before going promptly to the correct location. These staggered arrival times help to manage movement across the site and ensure that all students are ready to begin learning without disruption.

Punctuality and Daily Routines

Arriving late results in lost learning from the very start of the day and will be sanctioned with a detention. Specific routines are also in place for different year groups, including whole-school line‑ups on Monday mornings and clear expectations for Year 11 about independent study and intervention.
