Dear Parent/Carer,
BISHOP CHALLONER OPEN EVENING 24th SEPTEMBER 2026
Thursday 24th September 2026 is our Open Evening, it’s a wonderful opportunity to sell our school to prospective parents. In order for us to get the school ready, we will be dismissing students early on this day. There will be a staggered dismissal for all year groups as follows:-
12:30pm – Year 10
12:40pm – Year 9
12:50pm – Year 8
13:00pm – Year 7
13:10pm – Year 11 & Sixth Form
Lunch will be made available during an extended break.
Student helpers will remain on site to support departments in their preparations and will be offered food at 3pm. They will not be allowed to leave site and return unless there is express permission from a parent or carer.
Following Open Evening, students will be starting school late on Friday 25th September with gates opening at 9.30am form time from 9:35am-10:00am and lessons will begin for period 2 at 10:00am.
If this causes any issues with childcare, please send your child to school at the normal time and we will ensure that there is provision for them. If this is the case, then please contact the school on 0207 791 9500.
Yours sincerely
Mr O Walsh
Assistant Headteacher
