School Opens  

The school gate is unlocked and children go straight into their classrooms to do “early morning work”. We encourage children to go independently into the classrooms.  The Headteacher, Deputy or other member of staff is usually available by the gate to welcome children and talk to parents.  Parents/carers of nursery children may wait on the Cherry Tree playground but must supervise their children.

A member of staff welcomes children and is available to talk to parents/carers until 9.05am.

Children arriving after 8.55 am should come into school via the school office and be signed in by their parent/carer and registered as “late”.  Parents leaving the school after this time should do so via the school office.  The school gate will be locked at 8.55 am.  Nursery parents/carers arriving after this time can access the nursery via the internal door in the school office which will be opened by the office staff.
