Day Students / Non-Residential Schedule Overview 🌞

Teens attending the Harrow day-student programme enjoy a full and engaging day on campus, built around lessons, activities, and social experiences — while returning home in the evening. Each day begins with drop-off between 8:30 AM and 9:00 AM, followed by morning lessons designed to help students build confidence, strengthen academic foundations, and learn in small, supportive groups. Short breaks are included throughout the morning to keep students energised and focused. 📘☕

In the early evening, students enjoy dinner included each day, giving them time to relax and socialise with their classmates. After dinner, there are calm end-of-day sessions such as downtime, games, graduation events, and — on Friday — an optional disco from 7pm–9pm.
