Leaving the lesson and performing Salaah

Q: I am taking an online aalimah course and because of time differences, South African time goes from before maghrib 6:00 to 8:30 after esha has already set in. The asaatizah have told us that we should leave for salaah and catch up with the missed portion of the lesson later.i.e. We definitely shouldn't miss our Salaah for classes. Our first lesson completes at 7:00 or 6:45 depending on subject and day. Can I wait for the first lesson to complete and then read my maghrib Salaah before the next subject or should I immediately leave the lesson and catch up later?

School not allowing pupils to perform Salaah

Q: I am from the UK and currently in school. I am baaligh and unfortunately the school does not facilitate for us any place for Salaah. What should I do? It is compulsory to attend school but what can I do if they don't allow us to pray Salaah and we have lessons during Salaah time. Now in winter, we will definitely miss Asr Salaah. They don't allow you even for 5 Minutes to go pray and come back. Please advise me.
