Enterprise College Timetable
Students are placed into one of three groups. This is determined by student need and student dynamics; with groupings aimed at creating the most collaborative and effective learning environment.
Groups then rotate in a three-week cycle of two weeks onsite and one week offsite with set independent learning.
The term dates follow the typical academic structure with half terms and holidays in line with the school year.
NB: 30 minutes lunch not included in count as not funded hours.
