# School Hours

### **School Hours**

It is essential that children arrive at school on time and ready to learn.

| Breakfast Club Available | 8.00 am daily |
|---|---|
| School Starts | 8.50 am |
| KS1 and Year R Lunch | 12.00 – 1.00 pm |
| KS2 Lunch | 12.15 – 1.15 pm |
| School Day Ends | 3.20 pm |

There is a 15-minute interval during the morning session for Reception, KS1 and KS2.

The school length of the week is 32hrs 30 mins.

Children should **NOT** arrive at school before 8:40 a.m. unless they use the breakfast club, which opens at 8 a.m. All children enter school through their designated door from 8:45 a.m. and go straight to their classrooms. All children must be in school by 8:50 a.m.

Please ensure that your child is collected punctually at 3.20 pm. If you are unexpectedly delayed or someone else is collecting your child, please inform the school beforehand. Please note that there is a charge for Late Collection (Please see Late Collection Policy).

Children should be collected by their parents or a nominated adult who knows the child. If new adults come to collect pupils, we will telephone parents to confirm their identity.

Year 6 children who have permission to walk home (in spring/summer months) will be released through the school's front door, but they must leave the site and make their way home immediately (a signed parental letter is required for this). Permission to walk home must be in writing and handed into the school office, but it is not allowed in the winter months.

Pupils in KS1 classes are not allowed to walk home alone and must be collected by someone at least 16 years old unless a parent has expressed in writing that a younger secondary-aged pupil can collect.
