Key Dates and Times

All children and parents enter the Academy via the gate on Blackthorns Close which leads on to the key stage 1 playground.

Children and parents then follow a one way system to drop off and leave the site. Gates open at 08:45 and close at 08:55am. Should you arrive after this time please take your child to the school office. 

Children in Early Year Foundation Stage (EYFS) and key stage 1 are dismissed by teachers to their parents or whoever is collecting them onto the key stage 1 playground. Key stage 2 children are dismissed from their classrooms and they meet their parents on the key stage 2 playground.

We share our safety procedures with the children and they come straight back in to the academy office if there is nobody to collect them on the playground.

If you arrive after 08:55am, please take your child to the school office

*Pupils in year 6 are able to walk home alone is parental consent is provided. This is extended to year 5 once we reach Summer term
