Registration starts at 8:40am each day, but the Sixth Form Centre is open from 7:30am for those who would rather arrive early.

Set over two mezzanine floors in the heart of the School, the light and modern Sixth Form Centre is the perfect place to start each day. There are comfy areas for both working and socialising, with hot and cold food available from the Brasserie.

Breakfast is available in the Dining Hall.

A choice of hot and cold breakfast is available for the whole school in the main Senior Dining Hall. Parents are welcome to join us too!

The Library opens. Great for students that want to start their day by catching up on some work, borrowing a laptop or taking out a good book.

Assembly or Tutor Period. Each tutor group is made up of students between Years 11 and 13. There are between 8 and 12 students per tutor set. Students should expect a mix of 1:1 time with their tutor and time with the other students. 

Morning lessons. This is when the morning lessons start. Each period lasts for an hour and there is a short transfer time between each one, so students can get to where they need to be. Morning break is from 11:20am – 11:45am and allows for a quick recharge before the final lesson of the morning.

Lunch and activities. Lunch break is nice and long here at the High School, allowing students to have a break for food and to get involved in clubs and activities if they choose. Some students like a full sit-down meal in the Dining Hall while others prefer to Grab-and-Go or get take out food from the Brasserie; this allows more time to participate in activities or relax in our Sixth Form area. Once refuelled, students can get involved in one of our wide array of co-curricular opportunities taking place here every day. They can also hop on a tram and travel the 2 minutes into the city centre if they prefer.

Afternoon lessons. After some time spent recharging, students hit the ground running again with their period 4 and 5 classes.

School finishes. If they’re not taking part in any after-school activities, students can grab one of our many school buses or make their own way home. If they’re waiting to be picked up or want to get some extra work done, they’re welcome to stay in our Sixth Form Centre or Library.

Sixth Form Centre and Library close. Time to go home!
