Our School Day

Our day begins at 08:50 with Breakfast Club, which is an opportunity for pupils to start the day positively, enjoy eating with others, developing social skills and preparing for a learning focused day. During breakfast club, which is free of charge, pupils can choose from a selection of cereals or toast. We also provide water or milk.

The first lessons of the day are Maths and English. These lessons are highly personalised to ensure that all pupils are supported and that learning is targeted to meet their individual abilities.

Morning break time starts at 10:40 and is an opportunity for pupils to enjoy some outdoor time together and further develop their friendships. The 20-minute session includes opportunities for a snack (fruit/vegetables are available to all pupils free of charge) and time to learn about what is happening in our country and around the world.

Following break time, pupils will have a range of lessons including; Science, PE, Computing, Personal Development, Design Technology, Art, Music, PHSE and Humanities.

Lunchtime is staggered in 2 sittings between 12:45 and 13:15. Pupils eat together in class groups in the hall, where pupils bring in a packed lunch from home or have a hot meal (either purchased in advance or through the Local Authorities ‘Free School Meal’ scheme).

Lessons continue after lunch and school finishes at 14:35 on Monday – Thursday and 13:20 on Friday. 

The school week is 27.5 hours in total.
