School Opening Hours 8.45-3.15pm Monday-Thursday and 8.45-1.30pm Fridays. Children attend school for 30.75 hours in a typical week. Our pupils travel from a range of locations - Transitions can be difficult for our children, particularly at the beginning and end of the school day. To support this we have a 'soft start and finish' to each day.
Pupils can arrive between 8.45-9am and they leave between 3-3.15pm (Mon-Thurs) and at 1.30pm on Fridays. Children travelling with parents/carers should enter through the main school entrance. Children arriving by minibus will enter the school through the rear doors. Lisa Welch (Deputy Head) is the SEND lead.
