Understanding Our Two-Week Timetable

 When you join Year 7, you’ll use something called a two-week timetable. Don’t worry — it’s much easier than it sounds! Here’s how it works:

Two Weeks = Week 1 and Week 2

Our timetable runs on a repeating cycle of Week 1 and Week 2
That means:

• One week is Week 1
• The next week is Week 2
• Then it goes back to Week 1
• …and repeats all year!

Think of it like a pattern: 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 ..............

Why do we use a two week timetable?

Because it gives you:

• More variety in your subjects
• More time for practical lessons like Art, DT and PE
• A chance to study different topics without cramming them into five days

It keeps your week interesting and balanced!

What changes between Week 1 and Week 2?

You’ll still have:

• Form Period and 5 lessons a day
• The same start and finish times
• The timings will remain the same.

Just a few of your lessons will be in different places depending on the week.

Will it be confusing at first?

Not really — especially because:

• Your timetable clearly says Week 1 or Week 2
• It’s written at the top of the school calendar and on the website school calendar
• After about 2 weeks, you’ll remember it without even trying!

Most Year 7s say they find it fun once they get used to it.

What might your timetable look like?

Week 1

How to Stay Organised

Here are some easy tips:

• Keep a copy of your timetable in your blazer
• Take a photograph of it on your phone at home (if allowed)
• Pack you bag the night before
• On Sunday - check which week is coming up

You've Got This

A two-week timetable might sound big and grown‑up, but Year 7s learn it quickly.
And remember — your teachers, tutors and friends are all there to help.

You’ll be navigating Week 1 and Week 2 like a pro in no time!
