Running of The School
The school year, similar to many state schools, is split into three terms, autumn, spring and summer.
These terms are then split in half, with each half of terms lasting around six weeks. The holidays between halves of terms are one week and the holidays between terms last two weeks.
The school day begins at 8.25am and ends at 3.10pm, with five lessons, a break and a lunch break in that time.

Famous quotes containing the words running and/or school:
“Of all the thirty-six alternatives, running away is best.”
—Chinese proverb.
“After school days are over, the girls ... find no natural connection between their school life and the new one on which they enter, and are apt to be aimless, if not listless, needing external stimulus, and finding it only prepared for them, it may be, in some form of social excitement. ...girls after leaving school need intellectual interests, well regulated and not encroaching on home duties.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
