Lessons are usually 40 minutes in length. Generally art, design & technology and the sciences are taught in double lessons to allow for the practical work involved. Lunchtime on Thursday is lengthened to allow additional time for music rehearsals and sports practices, although practices and rehearsals do also take place at many other times during the week. Normal timetable is suspended each Friday afternoon, when a diverse range of activities take place. 

Timings from September 2012 are as follows.

** School finishes at 4pm each day, other than on Fridays when school finishes at 3:20.
