School Hours

From September 2021, the school day will start promptly at 8.50am. The school gates will be open from 8.40 to allow families time to drop children off. Nothing is worse for a child than to feel rushed or late at the beginning of the morning. This can have a detrimental effect on them throughout the day. Foundation, Year 1 and Year 2 children are met by members of staff at the door to the Key Stage 1 playground. Children in Years 3 to 6 will enter the key stage 2 playground via the green gates.

We will continue to run a one way system and ask parenst who wish to escort their children, to say goodbye at the 2 drop off points. Staff will be on the gates to recieve the children from 8.40.

Please do not bring your child before 8.40 am and if your child is travelling to school on their own, please ensure they are not arriving early.This is a safeguarding concern and early arrivals are not supervised - their presence is also unknown to staff who are busy in classrooms preparing for the working day.

School finishes at 3.20pm. Foundation and Key Stage 1 children are handed over to the person picking them up, whilst Key Stage 2 children either meet their parents or carers in the Key Stage 2 playground or may leave the school grounds on their own however we ask parents to inform the school if they would like their child to leave the grounds by themselves.

Please be prompt collecting your child. Staff have clubs, preparation, training and meetings which take place from 3.20.

As with any school, we do have difficulty with parking and we strongly recommend walking or cycling to school where possible, or parking further into the village and walking the last part of your journey. This does help with neighbouring residences!
