Punctuality

We believe that punctuality should be valued and hope you will encourage your child to arrive at school on time.  The school day begins at 9am for all our year groups and children arriving after this time are marked in the register as ‘late’. For security, the external doors are locked once the classes have entered the building and children arriving after this time will be marked as late and should enter school by the main entrance, recording their name, class and reason for late arrival on the school sign-in system.

At the end of the day, children will only be released to the adult that is expected on that day. Parents who are delayed on the way to collect children are asked to contact the school, so that the children can be reassured.
