The school day consisted of 5 separate units that lasted for 65 minutes, except on Tuesdays in which teachers have a meeting and pupils are released 25 minutes early. But from Monday May 29, 2006 the times changed and 2 extra units were added. Now on Mondays and Tuesdays there are 6 units and on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays there are 5.
