The School Day

Our timetable meets the needs of all our students. Our compulsory school day is 8.30am-5.30pm Monday-Thursday and 8.30am-3.45pm on Fridays.

The timetable is based on that of a traditional boarding school, so there is a longer school day. This allows for regular sessions of sport and physical activity, as well as opportunities to participate in a rich and varied optional curriculum, which includes music, drama, and other academic and non-academic activities. The longer school day is indicative of the importance we place on the development of the whole student – academic, physical, personal and spiritual. Mid-morning and afternoon snacks will be provided for all pupils, as well as lunch. Sitting down to a meal with friends and staff will be an integral part of the school day.
