Lateness

If your child is late for school (after the register has been taken), you must enter the school via the Reception/Office at the front of the school and register your child as late.

Home time

At the end of the school day, we anticipate that children in Year 3 will be collected by a responsible person. Year 4 pupils can walk to the end of Woodstock Avenue with written parental permission. All children who walk to the end of Woodstock Avenue to meet parents MUST be reminded to return to school if no-one turns up within a short 10 minute period of time from the school closing so that you can be contacted.  Year 5 and 6 can walk home with parental permission, in writing to the class teacher.
