Timings of the School Day

End of the School Day

St George’s Ascot offers a structured extended school day which allows pupils to benefit from a rich academic timetable alongside a wide range of co-curricular activities.

From 4.15–5.15pm, pupils take part in the co-curricular programme Monday to Thursday. Following this, girls may either be collected at 5.15pm or remain in school for supervised prep or our boarding options.

Many pupils choose to stay for prep before travelling home later in the evening, with school bus services departing at 6.45pm.

For families who would like their daughter to stay for supper and prep, our SGA Stays programme offers flexible evening options.
