The Government has set out guidelines on the expectation of all state funded mainstream schools to deliver a school week of at least 32.5 hours.  Case studies have proven that schools have found positive benefits from increasing the length of their school week so this is a positive change.

 

This means that after half term – starting Tuesday 20^th February our school day will finish at 3.20pm for RECEPTION, YEAR 1 AND YEAR 2 not 3.15pm.  Nursery will continue with their soft finish time of between 3.15 – 3.30pm
