Many Ark schools run a longer school day in order to provide adequate time for core subjects and enrichment opportunities. At Ark Boulton Academy we run a slightly longer school day so that our students have more time for learning and for taking part in the large number of enrichment activities that take place. Our opening hours are between 08.00 am - 16.30 pm and this amounts to 34 hours in a typical school week.
