Structure of The School Day and Pupil Management
Each student is supplied with a Personal Organiser. These are hardback books with useful information and plenty of diary space to record homework deadlines, write comments and record "merits". These are given to each pupil for free at the start of each year, but replacements cost £2.00.
The school day in its current form was launched in June 2008. It previously consisted of six 50-minute lessons, and ending the day at 3.20pm
Many extra-curricular clubs are held in the school, Music Department and Library activities.
Only pupils in the final year (Year 11) are allowed to leave the school site at lunchtime (with permission). Other pupils are permitted to leave the site. This permission is reflected in the form of a pass for the rest of the school year. Regular 'blitzes' are held in which senior management check whether the aforementioned passes are valid and genuine.

“Women over fifty already form one of the largest groups in the population structure of the western world. As long as they like themselves, they will not be an oppressed minority. In order to like themselves they must reject trivialization by others of who and what they are. A grown woman should not have to masquerade as a girl in order to remain in the land of the living.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“I’m a Sunday School teacher, and I’ve always known that the structure of law is founded on the Christian ethic that you shall love the Lord your God and your neighbor as yourself—a very high and perfect standard. We all know the fallibility of man, and the contentions in society, as described by Reinhold Niebuhr and many others, don’t permit us to achieve perfection.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“The verbal poetical texture of Shakespeare is the greatest the world has known, and is immensely superior to the structure of his plays as plays. With Shakespeare it is the metaphor that is the thing, not the play.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“There is nothing intrinsically better about a child who happily bounces off to school the first day and a child who is wary, watchful, and takes a longer time to separate from his parents and join the group. Neither one nor the other is smarter, better adjusted, or destined for a better life.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“All day long and all night through,
One thing only must I do:
Quench my pride and cool my blood,
Lest I perish in the flood.”
—Countee Cullen (1903–1946)
“All claims of education notwithstanding, the pupil will accept only that which his mind craves.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“People have described me as a “management bishop” but I say to my critics, “Jesus was a management expert too.””
—George Carey (b. 1935)
