The School Day
At Kingdown School, we have four 60 minute lessons and one 55 minute lesson, with a 20 minute tutor period each day. In total, students will be in school for 6 hours 30 mins each day (8.30am to 3.00pm) which totals 32 hours and 30 mins each week (not including after school activities).
Morning registration time
The day starts at 8:30am, when students make their way to the tennis courts for line up, followed by tutor time.
Official end of the day
The end of the day is after lesson 5, at 3:00pm. This excludes any after school activities.

Two week timetable
By operating a two week timetable (Week A and Week B), Kingdown School is able to provide flexibility for a broad and balanced curriculum.
It also allows us to focus an appropriate amount of time on the core subject areas.
After school clubs
On Monday, teachers are in meetings after school so there are no late buses and only limited after school activities on offer.
However, on Tuesday through to Thursday, we offer a wide range of after school activities (sporting and non-sporting) and late buses are also available.
