A typical week therefore is 32 and half hours.

At the beginning of the school day, the gates are open at 8.40 a.m., and children can enter school from 8.40 a.m. to 8.50 a.m.

Children should not be left on the playground before this time as there is no available supervision. School staff will be at the school gate to welcome families and answer questions. Teachers will open classroom doors at 8:40 to welcome pupils in.  Children are encouraged to say goodbye to parents at the gate door and, once in class,  to pass on any letters or monies to the teacher, and to put away their own book bag, water bottle and lunch box. This is part of their growing responsibility for their own belongings and independence.

 

Registers are formally taken at 8.55.  After this time pupils will be marked as late arrivals, door will be shut and children will need to enter via the main entrance. 

 

At the end of the day, parents are able to enter the playground from 3pm. Class teachers dismiss the children from the class door at 3.20 p.m. to the parents waiting in their own playground.  

 

If parents are going to be late, or someone different is to collect a child, please would parents notify the class teacher or the office. Without this permission the children will have to wait with their teacher whilst we phone parents to identify who the unknown adult is, even if children know them, as we also need to be comfortable that it is the parents choice for their child to go with the adult.

Together we: Dream, believe, achieve and succeed
