At The Rise School, our classes are named after trees. Trees symbolically represent our school values: they stand tall and proud, they are resilient during stormy weather, over time they grow upwards and in strength.

In 2024-2025 we have ten secondary classes:

Year 7 - Koa

Year 7 - Chesnut

Year 8 - Cypress

Year 8 - Elm

Year 9 - Larch

Year 9 - Spruce

Year 10 - Beech

Year 10 - Rosewood

Year 11 - Elder

Year 11 - Pine


We follow a “typical” Secondary model with pupils moving around the building to have lessons delivered by subject specialists. Their class teacher fulfils a form teacher function, they meet four times per day in their designated form room at:

8:45am-9:05am

10:50am-10:55am

1:20pm-1:30pm

2:50pm-3:00pm
