Important information

Members of the leadership team are available to speak to on the gate in the morning and teaching staff are happy to answer any questions on the playground at the end of the day. Please make an appointment to see a teacher either before or after school for a longer discussion. Thank you for your support and co-operation.

Please remember that your child must come to school on time. Children from Nursery to Year 4 must be accompanied by an adult when on school grounds. This is in the interest of childrenā€™s safety as there will not be a member of staff on duty before the gates open at 8.40 am.

Your child needs to be collected on time at the end of the day. Please ensure your child is collected at the end of the school day no later than 3.30pm. Children can become very upset if the person is late collecting them.

Lateness

All children must arrive at school by the start time above. Lateness after the children have walked round to class and doors are shut will incur a ā€˜late markā€™ in the attendance register, which will then be recorded on your childā€™s attendance record. We ask for your cooperation in ensuring that your child arrives at school on time, as valuable curriculum opportunities are lost through continued late arrivals. Persistent lateness or absence will result in a meeting with the Headteacher or a visit by the schoolā€™s Educational Welfare officer.

Authorised Absences

Please ensure that you contact the school by 9.30am on the day of the absence to inform us of the reason.

Genuine Sickness

School will authorise sickness for up to 10 days (continuous or intermittent) but after that we may ask to discuss the situation with you.

Medical Appointments

School will authorise medical appointments, e.g. doctors, dentist, hospital, provided we have received or seen a letter. However if possible, we would prefer it you could make appointments outside of school hours.
