The arrangement of classes

There are five classes in the school: -

• Class 1 Reception (R) and Year 1 (Y1) children
• Class 2 Year 1 (Y1) and Year 2 (Y2) children
• Class 3 Year 3 (Y3) and Year 4 (Y4) children
• Class 4 Year 4 (Y4) and Year 5 (Y5) children
• Class 5 Year 5 (Y5) and Year 6 (Y6) children

Children move from one class to another mainly by age but where this is not possible the Headteacher will have the final say on which class the children will go into.

The school day

• The school day starts at 9.00 am.
• Supervision of the children is provided from 8.50am.
• Morning school ends at noon.
• Afternoon school starts at 1.00p.m. and ends at 3.30 p.m.

There is a break of 15 minutes during both morning and afternoon sessions.

Lunch times

Parents may chose whether their children go home or stay at school at lunchtime. If they stay at school they will be cared for by our four school meals supervisors.

Out-of-School care

The Governors and Headteacher have investigated the practicalities of this in conjunction with the organisation currently providing these facilities at Silkstone School. At the moment school facilities and lack of interest from parents means that out-of-school provision in addition to the current after-school clubs is not practical.
