How the Day is Organised
Pupils arrive at school between 8.00am 8.40am each day. Those arriving at 8.00am go straight to the Library where they will be supervised until 8.20am after which time the go to their form rooms.
This is how our school day is made up:

3.05 – 3.35pm Lesson 10
3.35 – 3.45pm Afternoon Registration
3.45 – 4.45 pm Clubs and Activities
Even though it appears we can have 10 lessons in a day, we do not! Many of the lessons are double periods of one hour. Typically children have between five and seven lessons each day.
The school day can finish at 3.45pm. However, clubs, activities and supervised prep begin at 3.50pm and a large number of children are still with us until 4.45pm. Some pupils travel to and from school by themselves and catch one of the buses or coaches (a number are only for Ryde School pupils). Other children are collected by their parents. If parents are late staff supervise children either in the library or school office.
