Charterhouse School - School Terms

School Terms

There are three academic terms (known as Quarters) in the year,

  • The Oration Quarter (OQ), from early September to mid December.
  • The Long Quarter (LQ), from mid January to late March. Therefore, it traditionally had the distinction of being the shortest third of the school year, despite its name.
  • The Cricket Quarter (CQ), from late April to late June or early July.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or terms:

    “But there are advantages to being elected President. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.”
    —Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

    “One of the most highly valued functions of used parents these days is to be the villains of their children’s lives, the people the child blames for any shortcomings or disappointments. But if your identity comes from your parents’ failings, then you remain forever a member of the child generation, stuck and unable to move on to an adulthood in which you identify yourself in terms of what you do, not what has been done to you.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)
