New Look Student Timetable for 2024
We are excited to announce that from the beginning of 2024, we will be changing to a new look timetable which will have 4 blocks of 75 minutes per day on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday; on Fridays there will be 5 blocks of 65 minutes.
A few important things to note are that the school day will start at 8.30am and finish at 3pm every day which is different to what we currently have. From next year ALL Senior Students will take 6 subjects and there will no longer be timetabled study classes.
