Changes to the School Day from September 2022

The government white paper sets an expectation that all state-funded mainstream schools will deliver a school week of at least 32.5 hours, as soon as they can, and from September 2023 at the latest.

The 32.5 hour minimum expectation includes the time in each day from the official start of the school day (i.e. morning registration) to the official end to the compulsory school day (i.e. official home time). The 32.5 hour minimum includes breaks and lunch times as well as teaching time and any extra-curricular activities that all pupils are expected to attend. It does not include optional before or after school provision.

As a result from September 2022 we will be slightly expanding the hours we are open.

School will start at 8.50am (gates will open at 8.40 and close at 8.50 for registration, when all pupils will be expected to be in school).

School will close at 3.20pm.
