Designed for Learning
Our timetable has been carefully planned to maximise your ability to concentrate and learn effectively.
Academic research shows that more frequent lessons improve retention, so you’ll have three lessons per subject each week instead of two.
Responding to Students
Our students told us they wanted time between lessons to study on campus using our facilities. Many find it easier to complete homework here than at home, especially when working with friends. They also wanted time to socialise and enjoy college life, so we’ve built that into the schedule and expanded enrichment opportunities through our Be Extraordinary programme.
There is no such thing as ‘trapped time’.
The timetable finishes early on Wednesdays, giving you time to take part in Team Sports or other enrichment activities. Shorter sessions also create more opportunities for support sessions and participation in our Academic Extension programme to strengthen your study skills and boost your success.
The campus opens at 08:30, giving you time to prepare for lessons. Breakfast items and refreshments are available in Eat Central.
Simplicity
Lessons start no earlier than 09:40 and finish no later than 16:20, making travel straightforward using our public transport options.
All students share the same lunchtime, so you can spend time with friends even if you study different subjects.
Havant Campus Example Timetable
Please note this is an example timetable. Individual schedules will vary depending on subjects and course groupings.
This student studies three A-levels: Ancient History, French, and English Language. Outside of class, they are heavily involved in enrichment activities to bolster their university application. On Thursdays, they work on their Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), and also attend Netball Club and Poetry Club. They enjoy going home to study on a Friday afternoon, but they use on-campus facilities such as the Learning Resource Centre for other Independent Study sessions.
This student studies Law, Philosophy, Religion & Ethics and Fine Art. Alongside their lessons, they have an academic support session on a Monday afternoon, and put their graphical skills to work on a student magazine during lunchtime on a Friday. This gives them some great experience for their art portfolio. They usually study from home on a Wednesday, but sometimes they come in to chat with student wellbeing about their progress and workload.
