Term Dates and ATTENDANCE

We are unable to grant any leave of absence for family holidays, unless there are exceptional circumstances which support the request being made.

Where a family chooses to take a holiday during term time, the absences will be coded as unauthorised, and as such Headteachers may request that the Local Authority issues a Penalty Notice. For more information please visit the following page Attendance information for schools.      

The School Day

Classroom doors are opened at 8:30am and the school day starts at 8.35am, doors will be closed promptly at 8.40. After this time all children must be brought through the main entrance and signed in at the office.

The school day ends at 3.00pm.

School cannot take legal responsibility for children who arrive before 8.30 am. Please do not allow children to play on the equipment, or grass mound before and after school for their own safety.

In the interests of health and safety, parents/carers are asked to allow children unobstructed access in entering and exiting the school in the morning and afternoon, in order to ensure that teachers are able to check that all children enter and leave the building safely.
