School Day

• • Lessons begin at 8:35am – aim to arrive in school for 8:30.  Even if you do not have timetabled lessons, you are required to be in school and will be expected in our independent study spaces.
  • For each of your 3 A-Level subjects, you will have 6 lessons a week, timetabled as double lessons where possible.
  • You will also have a daily tutor session, which is used to deliver aspects of our personal development curriculum (PDC).  Tutors also see their tutees every week for a PDC lesson.
  • You will have 2-3 timetabled lessons per week for your chosen extension course.
  • You’ll have 3 supervised study sessions per week, helping you to develop motivation and commitment to your studies and preventing you from feeling overwhelmed.
  • You’ll have independent study time in which you can use the extensive spaces around the sixth form to revise, complete homework tasks and prepare for your lessons.
  • Our library is also open after school until 4:45pm, where you are welcome to stay and study.

We know from experience that students who fully commit to their studies go on to achieve impressive grades at A-Level. We encourage our students to make the most of their time and resources while studying with us.
