Structure of the School Day

We expect pupils to arrive at school between 9.00am and 9.10am for a 9.10am start with Tutor Time. Staff will always be allocated to meet and welcome arrivals from 8.45am.  Children are asked to wait in their taxi if they arrive before this time, as supervision cannot be guaranteed before 8.45am.

Tutor time will continue until 9.50am to allow for the variable arrival times of students; those with longer journeys may require some sensory circuits after particularly long journeys.  Tutor time will also include time dedicated to Social Communication studies.

Pupils must come straight into the school building on arrival and they must place all prohibited items, such as phones, media devices, vapes and e-cigarettes into their personal locker for the duration of the school day.

The school day consists of 5 lessons of 50 minutes duration each, with a 20-minute morning break and 30-minute lunch break.
