The School Day
Children should arrive at school between 8:40am and 8:50am. The register is taken at 8:50 am and closes at 9.00am. Any children arriving between 8.50am and 9.00am will be marked as late. Arrival after 9.00am will be recorded as an unauthorised absence. Any parent who has not notified the school of their child’s absence by 10am (on the day of the absence) will be contacted by the school.
Children should enter the school via the appropriate gate at 8:40am in the morning and can be collected from their classroom door at home time. We ask that parents do not accompany children into the classrooms or cloakroom areas, as these areas are very congested, and we encourage the pupils to be independent. If you require childcare before school starts, breakfast club is available from 7:30am and can be accessed via the hall door.
We ask that parents collect their children promptly at 3:20pm, from their classroom. If your child is in Y5 or Y6 and you would like them to walk home, please inform the school office. If your child arrives after 8:50 or needs to be collected before 3:20, please bring them to / collect them from the school office. This enables us to keep an accurate record of attendance and ensures we know who is on site during the school day.
Children attend school for 190 days and staff for 195. A calendar of term dates and holidays can be downloaded from the school website.
Please note that we cannot be responsible for children left unsupervised outside of school before 8.40am or after 3.20pm.
