The School Day
Students may arrive at school from 7.45am, entering the site through the green gates to the west of the main entrance (using their ID card to gain access). Students arriving from 7.45am must remain in Le Bistro until 8.10am. Students arriving between 8.10 and 8.30am may use the west and east entrances; those arriving late (i.e. after 8.25am) may only use the main entrance. All students must leave the site before 3.45pm unless they are involved in an activity directly supervised by a member of staff.

In addition to extra-curricular activities at the Sir David English Sports Centre, some facilities on the main site are also open to students after school. The school library is open on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays until 4.30pm and on Fridays until 4.00pm. Students may use the computers in room 53 for independent study on Mondays to Thursdays until 4.30pm and on Fridays until 4.00pm. Room 53 also accommodates our “Success Club” from 3.30pm to 4.30pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for students who would like some additional support.
Students in Years 7 – 11 are not allowed off the school site during break and lunchtime. Sixth form students must sign out of school using their ID cards if they leave the site during the school day.
The school grounds include an area of woodland, commonly referred to as ‘the copse’. We feel privileged that our students are able to enjoy such an area at break time and lunchtimes, and also walk through it to attend activities at the Sir David English Sports Centre and the school field. This area is secure, with no public right of way.
