Attendance & Term Dates

HomeParents & CarersAttendance & Term Dates

Times of the Day

All year groups follow the below schedule:
  • Morning 08:55 am to 12:00 noon
  • Afternoon 12:55 pm to 03:25 pm

This equates to 32.5 hours per week.

Our gates are open from 8:40am. Children should arrive in school from 8.45 am each morning and prior to registration at 8.55 am. Your co-operation will help a smooth start to the day for all our children. Thank you.

Reporting an Absence

Parents should let school know before 9:30am if their child is too ill to attend. The NHS provide useful information about illnesses and whether or not pupils should attend school: Is My Child Too Ill for School?

Here is a link to our attendance policy with information about parents’ responsibilities for attendance and about absences in term time.
