Enter through the "in" gate (right side as you look at gates) and wait on the patio for your child to be dismissed from the internal passenger gates. That will be the gate to the side of the carpark for Y4 and Y5. It will be the side gate by the office for Y3 and Y6. Then please leave by the "out" gate.
It is essential that children arrive at school on time. Children should not, however, arrive any earlier than the 8:40 (Juniors) and 8:50 (Infants) doors open time as staff are not on duty until then. If you need your child to be at School earlier, please book them into Breakfast Club.
Collecting children on time at the end of the day is equally as important as punctuality at the beginning of the day. Children can quickly become distressed if they are left behind after their friends have gone home. If you do find that you are unavoidably delayed and will be a little late collecting your child please phone the school office so that we can arrange for your child to be supervised until you arrive.
If you wish your child to walk home by themselves in Y6, you will need to give written permission to Ms Lampard, Headteacher. If your child is walking home alone and you wish them to have a mobile phone with them, you will need to write to the headteacher for permission. They are stored during the day but primary aged children should only have a mobile phone in exceptional circumstances and the school cannot take responsibility for loss or damage.
Parents are asked to supervise their children at the start and end of the school day. At the Infant Site children should not be allowed to climb on the apparatus in the rear playground or the handrails by the ramp in the front playground. At the Junior Site younger brothers and sisters must be closely supervised by parents. We ask all parents to keep Infant and pre- school children with them whilst they are waiting for Junior children and not allow them to climb on the handrails by the steps and ramp at the front of the school.
Children must stop riding scooters and bikes when they reach the school gates in both schools.
Parents must not park their cars on the zigzag lines or on the kerb outside school, as this greatly increases the risk of accidents to the children. Traffic Wardens and a mobile CCTV Unit regularly patrol the area.
Parents are not to use the staff car parks at either site or to bring dogs (except guide dogs) on to the school premises.
