Times of the School Day
Each day the children are in school for 6.5 hours, totalling 32.5 hours across the week. This is in line with Government guidelines. In addition to this, we have a number of extra curricular clubs running throughout the week, and WASPS - our Wraparound Care before and after school.
To ensure the safety of all of our children, and reduce the traffic outside the school at drop off and collection times, the start and end of the day are staggered for pupils in Key Stage 1 and 2.

Each morning we start the day of with an act of Collective Worship, followed by a balance of Phonics or Reading, Writing and Maths. After lunch, the afternoons are full of lots of other exciting curriculum lessons following Geography, History, Art and or Design Technology, Computing, Music, Modern Foreign Languages, RE, PSHE, PE, Science. Children may not have every subject every week – for example, to ensure they have longer to accomplish bigger projects, subjects like Art and Design Technology may be delivered across a whole day or a number of afternoons in one week. Subjects like Geography and History are timetabled based on the current theme being taught.
