Admissions Arrangements

At this time of the school year, we would normally be welcoming you to look around our school and meet our staff, however, due to the current situation we are sadly unable to do this.  Our EYFS and Year 3 staff are visiting feeder schools and nurseries to introduce themselves to the children.

We are also holding virtual appointments for EYFS parents so we can “meet” families and answer any questions.

We are very proud of our school and we hope that you are excited to join us and become a member of our school community.

We are looking forward to meeting you all in the future.

School Week Start & Finish times

Every morning the gates open at 8.30am for children to be in class for a prompt 8.40am registration. School finishes at 3pm. The school week consists of 32.5 hours. 

The white paper Opportunity for all: strong schools with great teachers for your child sets out the expectation, that state-funded mainstream schools currently offering a school week of below 32.5 hours should work towards increasing their hours to provide at least 32.5 hours by September 2023 at the latest. Specialist settings, including alternative provision providers, should share the ambition to extend and enrich the school week.
