[Grammar] "leave (the) school"

[dinolearner]

a) I leave school at five everyday.

The Open Day is held at my school :

b) On the Open Day, I will leave the school at six.
c) On the Open Day, I will leave school at six.

Are the sentences above correct? What is the difference between b) and c)?

Thank you

Not a teacher

A There must be "the" before "school."

B means that the one who will leave the school is a teacher, a student or any other person who works in the school.

C means that the one who will leave is only a visitor.

A There must be "the" before "school."

B means that the one who will leave the school is a teacher, a student or any other person who works in the school.

C means that the one who will leave is only a visitor.

A. I think "the" is optional.

B & C - How do you tell if the sentences are spoken by a teacher/student/visitor?

To me it is vital to use "the" before "school" on account of "everyday" which is written in the end of the sentence. The use of everyday makes the school a special place where he goes daily and with special things we use the.
B) because for a teacher or a student the school is an important place where they go daily.

C) because for a visitor school is not an important place.

I'm not a teacher
