Is it permissible for me to delay the prayers (Dhuhr, Asr, and Maghrib) and combine them after finishing school due to the unavailability of an Islamic school and study hours extending until after Maghrib, and is it permissible for me to miss Friday prayer sometimes to avoid failing?

There is no excuse for delaying prayer beyond its prescribed time due to studying, and failure in this world is easier to bear than failure in the Hereafter. For more details, one can refer to the fatwas related to delaying prayer and missing Friday prayer for the sake of studying.
