Please be on time for school!

We are noticing an increasing number of pupils arriving late for school.

Remember our school gate opens at 8.40am for pupils to come in and go to classrooms ready to start their learning. This gate is closed promptly at 8.55am.

Arriving after this time means that pupils miss vital learning time.

This missed time adds up - if a pupil is five minutes late every day that is twenty five minutes a week of missed learning - imagine how this adds up over a school year.

So please be on time for school!

Jewellery

Rings, necklaces, bracelets are a hazard in school and should not be worn to school. (Please note the exception to this is any jewellery that needs to be worn for medical reasons, e.g. a medical bracelet).

The wearing of earrings is discouraged in school.

If parents opt for their child to wear earrings they must be small plain gold/silver studs only; hoops and large or dangly earrings are not permitted for health and safety reasons.

Only one pair of small studs is allowed to be worn in school (please note these will need to be taped up or removed during PE lessons and activities).

Children are allowed watches to school but these should not be smartwatches which could allow photographs to be taken and could be linked to the internet.
