School Office

Our School Office Staff are here to help you, however here are a few items that may be useful to parents and carers which you can view or download from our website.

Our School Day

Here is a breakdown of our school day:

The length of the school week for teaching purposes (excluding lunchtime, morning and afternoon break, registration morning and afternoon, and daily Collective Worship) is:

  • KS1 — 21 hours 20 minutes
  • KS2 — 23 hours 50 minutes

The school day starts from 8.50am. Supervision is available only from 8.40am. We must insist that no children arrive before that time as no supervision will be provided. The school day finishes at 3.15pm. Children can be collected from the playground. Children using a school taxi will be accompanied on to the taxis by classroom staff.

  • Morning Break – All: 10.15-10.30
  • Lunch – KS1: 12.00-1.15 and KS2: 12.20-1.15
  • Afternoon Break – Class 1: 2.30-2.40
