This is a very common question. 

AireOS cannot "schedule" when an SSID can go up/down, however, newer 9800 WLC can.  

The only way to do this with AirOS are the following: 

1. Use Prime Infrastructure; 
2. Use time-based ACL to enable/disable the VLAN of the AP (NOTE:  This means the AP will go offline); 
3. Use EnergyWise to turn the power off/on of the AP
