Arriving late:

If you arrive after 8.45am the gates will be locked. You will need to bring your child to the main school gate on Crowden Road to be signed in at the office your child will get a late mark. Please telephone or use the intercom system to alert the office that you are there.  

 

We ask parents to complete a collection form so we know who has permission to collect your child. Please ensure you keep us up to date. If you will not be collecting your child, please ensure you inform your child who is collecting them before they come into school. Year 5 and year 6 children are allowed to walk home alone if we have written consent from parents stating this.

 

Break and Lunchtimes

Breaktime - 11.00am - 11.15am

Lunchtime - 12.15pm -1.00pm  

 

Late Collection at the end of the school day

 

We teach all children that if their parent/carer has not arrived at the end of school, they must wait at the school office. 

We ask that parents and carers advise the school office if they are delayed, so that your child can be reassured.   

In the unlikely event of a delay of over 30 minutes, your child will be taken to after school club – please be advised there is a charge for this.
