The school office is open from 8am until 4pm
We are going to trial a ‘drop-off window’ for all pupils and students. This will be from 8.25am to 8.35am. Tutor time will start at 8:40am/
During this time, taxis and parents can drop their children off and not have to wait until 8.40am. This will enable a better traffic flow. Pupils can come into school and wait in the main hall supervised by staff. We can then make sure they are ready to start registration at 8.40am so maximising this important time.
We would ask that Post 16 be dropped outside the school grounds and for them to walk into school to ease volume of traffic on site. If this is not possible then Post 16 students must be dropped off between 8.15 and 8.25am.
We are moving the finish times so everyone will finish at 2.50pm. However, we ask that wherever possible, parents park off-site and walk in. The taxis must drop off in school so they take priority.
Post 16 pick-up parents will not be allowed onto the school site to pick up Post 16 students until 3.05pm allowing the bulk of the taxis to clear the school site after the 2.50pm finish. Students can of course walk off site to meet parents outside the school grounds if parents want an earlier pick up after 2:50pm.
At Break time pupils are encouraged to play outside in the secure school playground. Drinks and healthy snacks can be purchased from the tuck shop or healthy snacks and drinks can also be brought from home.
For pupils in Key Stage 2 there is a specific time built into their morning session when they sit together and have their snack and drink.
At the supervised Lunch time, pupils will either have a hot school dinner or a packed lunch brought from home. Free school meals are available, please contact the school office for further information. After the pupils have enjoyed their lunch, they can spend their free time in the playground or attend one of the various clubs run throughout the week e.g. Science, ICT, Choir and, nearer exam times, extra revision clubs.
