St. Clare's IB Diploma follows a three-term system. The first term runs from late August to mid-December, with a one-week half-term break. The second term runs from early January to Easter, with a short break in February and a two-week break around Easter. The third term runs from the end of the Easter break to mid-June. There is no half-term break in the third term. Second year students take their examinations in May and graduate usually in the last week of May.
