Children should arrive no earlier than 8.45 am, when teaching staff are available to supervise them. The doors will be open from 8.45am and the children will be able to take part in 'early work' before registration to help them to be ready for their first lesson which will start promptly at 9.00am.

Children returning home for lunch should not return before 1.00 pm unless they are taking part in any school activity.

If a child is not collected on time at the end of the day, and we have not received any notification within 15 minutes, we will presume that an emergency has arisen, and will instigate our procedure for uncollected children. A full copy of this procedure is available at the school office.

ATTENDANCE

Attendance and punctuality are critical factors not only to your child's education but also to the success of the school and therefore other children. Please ring the school before 9.30 am on the first day of the child's absence. Children also require an appointment card from the dentist or doctor when undergoing sustained treatment. It is now school policy to ring parents if we do not have prior notification of appointments or parents have not contacted the school. This is to ensure the safety of all of our children.

HOLIDAYS IN TERM TIME

A child's education suffers when the continuity of their school work is disrupted by holidays taken during term time. It is a legal requirement of parents/carers to ensure that their children are in school for 190 days per year. We are obliged to consistently apply the criteria for authorised absences set out by the Local Authority. Application forms for a leave of absence are available at the school office.

SNOW DAYS

In the event of the school having to close due to bad weather, we will notify Warwickshire County Council who will post the information within 20 minutes on their website www.warwickshire.gov.uk/schoolclosures A free text and email alert service is also available from the Warwickshire County Council website.
