Our School Day

Edward Pauling's School Day

The length of the school week is 32.5 hours.

Children should not arrive at school before our opening unless they are attending Breakfast Club or a morning activity club, as the school cannot accept legal responsibility for their supervision before this time.

Children should be collected from their classroom at the closing of the school day unless they have written permission to walk home.

The gates to the school grounds open at 8.30 am and close at 8.50am. You need to ensure your child is coming through the school gates by 8.45 am at the latest. The register will be taken promptly at 8.55 am. Late arrivals are disruptive to the whole class and often embarrassing for your child. We take the view that there are no late children, only late parents.
