Timings of the Day
All students in Years 7 to 11 will arrive at the Academy at the same time via the back gate entrance off Dagnall Street. Students in the Sixth Form will arrive via the side entrance off Culvert Road.
Students are welcome to come along and enjoy a free breakfast from 8:10am till 8:30am.
Students are expected to be in school for 8:10am so that we can complete uniform and equipment checks so that they are organised for the day.
We are open until 17:00, where the students can access the after-school clubs including homework club. Students have 33 hours per week of curriculum time.
Students arriving to school after 8:25am, but before form register closes at 9am are recorded as L (late arrival) in the school register. Students arriving after 9am are recorded as U (absent) for the morning in the school register.
