We recently took part in a massive charity event helping young people in
Uganda , this consisted of a trip toUganda , named "U can in Uganda".Time table
Unlike most schools in London, the official school day starts at 8:15 with either registration or assembly and finishing at 2:20 or 1:20 on Fridays for students who do not have period 5 - one hour earlier than most. This gives pupils the opportunity to organise their time, leaving the afternoon at their leisure. As a result of this, the morning break was shortened to 15 minutes and a longer 30 minute break instead of an hour break.

A new sports hall was built and the old sports hall is currently been developed into a new drama studio with a theatre at the front as Brampton Manor is now a specialist
performing arts school.Planning has finished to convert the east side of the school to make it look like the west side, as the school ran out of money 9 years ago when they were designing it.
