Our School Day

The school day comprises two sessions:

Morning session: 8.45 am to 12.15pm, with a 15 minute break

Afternoon session: 1.15 pm to 3.15 pm 

Please note children across all year groups will begin their day at 8.45am and finish at 3.15pm in line with the government White Paper that expects all mainstream schools to offer a minimum of 32.5 hours per week from September 2023 at the latest.

Arrival

Children may arrive from 8.30 am when the school gates open, to ensure that they are ready to start school at 8.45 am. A Breakfast Club also runs from 7.35 am each day and the After School club which runs every day after school until 6.00 pm.  See the Shine website to make a booking.

Late Arrival

Morning or afternoon – children who arrive late for any reason (medical or otherwise), should come to the school office first to ensure they are registered before going to class.

Departures

All year groups now finish the school day at 3.15pm.  If you collect your child early for an appointment you will need to go through the main reception area in order to sign your child out. Evidence of appointments must be provided.

For those of you with more than one child in school, please arrange with any older siblings to wait for you in an agreed place near their classroom whilst you collect younger siblings.
