- Teachers are personally responsible for the discipline of their own classes at line-up. Important notices will be made at morning line-up.
- All periods are 40 minutes long. Most subjects have been allocated double teaching periods (80 min) to obtain maximum teaching time and to allow sufficient time for tasks to be completed during the allocated period. This format limits movement from class to class. The extended times in the Foundation Phase was standardised to accommodate additional teaching time (focus on Maths and English) and to limit disruptions in that phase.
- All Staff Meetings are held on Mondays at 07:15 - 07:40.
- Phase/SMT/SDT extramural and Subject Meetings for staff are held according to the Term Plan.
- On the last day of each term the school closes at 11h00 for all pupils
- The first ten minutes of the day in the Intersen Phase is used for administrative work, e.g checking registers, homework books, newsletters and collecting reply slips.
