Have you switched on the 'Auto Switch On and Off' as you can have it set just after you go to school?:) its where you can set a time to switch on and off at certain times

Have you tried flicking it off at the plug before you leave for school...

If it's still on then someone's going on your computer.

I am not familiar with Windows, but after some googling, I think this link might help: http://www.rickysays.com/windows-update-settings#.UyoWzK2SxCo

Another unlikely reason is that you've changed your BIOS settings to start your computer automatically at a specific time of day. Hope that helps!
