Short answer
UK families usually fit Quran lessons between about 4pm and 7pm on school days or at weekends, keep a lighter schedule over half-terms and holidays, and use one-to-one lessons to complement, not replace, madrasah where children attend.
Term time
During term time, a fixed after-school slot on the same days each week is easiest to keep. Many families avoid days with after-school clubs.
Half-terms and holidays
The UK school year has several breaks. A lighter holiday schedule often keeps reading fresh better than a full stop. If you travel, lessons can continue from abroad with a stable connection, booked in your new local time.
Madrasah and one-to-one lessons
Many children attend evening or weekend madrasah. One-to-one lessons can complement it by giving individual reading or memorisation practice. If a child is attending both, keep the combined load realistic so they do not become tired or discouraged.
Exam years
In exam years, such as GCSEs, some families reduce lessons temporarily. Tell the teacher in advance so revision can be planned.
Clocks changing
The UK changes between GMT and BST in March and October. Lessons are booked in UK time, so your routine stays the same.
