Extended Day













The longer school day is a particular feature of the school, with pupils having access to sessions before and after formal lesson times.  A key part of our vision is to broaden horizons through offering a full range of extra-curricular activities. All pupils have access to two free activities a week and we have many other chargeable external clubs on offer.

Our wrap around care (Earlybirds and Nightingales)  is provided by SCL Education Ltd for children in the junior school. The facility is intended to help working families, and  those who require more flexible arrangements for drop off and collection. Pupils benefit from refreshments and a programme of supervised activities.

Earlybirds

It is available to all pupils from 07.30 until 08.30 and is a chargeable session. The provision includes a continental breakfast with cereal, toast, fruit, milk and juice. Children can also use the time to take part in a range of supervised games and activities.
