Bell times

Our school day is structured around a clear timetable. We have set times for learning sessions, planned activities and breaks. Understanding the bell times helps students get the most out of each part of the day.

Our school day

Late arrivals or early leavers

At our school, we believe it is vitally important that all students and staff are prompt and punctual each day. The school has a formal sign in and sign out procedure for students who arrive late or who are leaving early.

Upon arriving late at school, the parent/carer dropping the child off should go with them to the office to give a reason for their lateness and collect a late note. If a child arrives late without parent/carer explanation, this partial absence will be recorded as ‘unjustified’. If the reason for lateness is given as “running late”, this will also be recorded as ‘unjustified’.

When arriving to collect a child early from school, the parent/carer should go to the office to give a reason for their early departure. The child will then be called to the office to go home.

If a child is taken from school and then returned on the same day, the parent/carer must go to the office twice, for the early departure and then again for the return.
