- School Day
From September 2024, the Department for Education expectation is for all state-funded mainstream schools to have a 32.5-hour-long school week, not including optional activities.
Each class in KS1 and KS2 gets a 15 minute morning break and a 30 minute lunch break.
Extended Hours
Extended School Provision is the term used to describe additional services and provision which we offer as a school or in partnership with other providers outside of the normal school day.
Breakfast Club
We run a very successful and popular breakfast club.
Breakfast Club opens at 8am.
For a minimal charge which contributes to the childcare element of the provision, pupils are provided with breakfast – choice of cereal, bagels, choice of cold drink and fresh fruit (as available). They then participate in a range of supervised activities (construction, drawing and colouring, board games etc). Most days there is also outdoor provision on the MUGA with our playleader. Regular competitions are held and prizes awarded.
Pupils remain in Breakfast Club until it is time for them to go to class. Pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are collected from Breakfast Club, and older pupils are taken to class.
Places in our Breakfast Club must be booked in advance. Please enquire at the school office to find out if places are available. You can book for a full week or for specific days in each week if that meets your needs. If there are no places you can add your child’s name to the waiting list. Attendance is monitored regularly, and if pupils with places are not attending then thier places may be offered to others on the waiting list.
After School Clubs
We aim to have a wide range of after-school activities available for pupils to join. Some of these are targeted at specific classes or year groups, but we try to ensure that there is something on offer for all pupils throughout the year. Many of the activities are organised by our own staff, however sometimes external providers are utilised in order to enhance the range of activities on offer.
