# School Day

# School Day

From September 2026, the structure and timings of the school day will change. The new timetable has been designed to support the smooth running of the school, make the best use of learning time and provide pupils with a clear and consistent routine throughout the day.

Pupils, parents and carers should familiarise themselves with the new timings before the start of the academic year. Pupils should arrive on site in good time and be ready to begin the school day promptly.

Morning Inspire 8.00am

Tutor time begins 8.40am

Monday, Wednesday, Thursday &amp; Friday school day ends 3.10pm

Tuesday school day ends 2.45pm

## Monday, Wednesday, Thursday &amp; Friday

Break and lunchtime are staggered, with Years 7 and 8 and Sixth Form following a different pattern to Years 9, 10 and 11.
