  • The School Day

    This equates to 31 hours and 40 minutes of education each week, including break and lunchtime periods, and meets the statutory requirements set out by the Department for Education.

    Students are dismissed at the end of the school day, with collection taking place between 3:05pm and 3:20pm.
