The table below summarises the academy day for all year groups. The total number of compulsory hours in school each week is 35.4 hours per week.
Students must be in Morning Meeting by 8:20 am every day. Our school day finishes at 3.05pm Monday to Wednesday and 2.145pm on Thursday and Friday.
All students must arrive at the academy by 8.15 am, ready to start at 8.20 am.
All students begin their day with Morning Meeting, which includes retrieval practice (focused on critical knowledge), literacy and numeracy development, strengthening of school culture, value expectations reset, and appreciation/recognition.
For all students, same-day corrections (detentions of up to 1 hour) start at 3.25 pm from Monday to Wednesday and at 2.30 pm from Thursday to Friday.
We have extended the academy day to give students more classroom time to apply their skills and understanding deepening their learning.
