As a split site school we have slightly different times of the school day on each site to accommodate the needs of parents who drop and collect children from both sites.
Grove Front Gate: Nursery, Beech, Oak, 1HU and Year 2
Grove Back Gate: Ash, Elm, 1GG, 1SM, 1ET and Year 2
Nursery, Reception and Year 1 children should be walked to the door of their classroom by the adult dropping them at school for a quick handover with the class teacher. Nursery, Reception and Year 1 children should not be left at the gate to walk to the classroom on their own.
Our Year 2 classrooms do not have doors to the playgrounds but we ask parents to walk the children through the school gates (front or back) to assist with bikes or scooters and to keep the area around the gates less congested. Parents of Year 2 pupils are encouraged to say goodbye to their children in the playground so they can walk independently to class. We politely ask all parents to refrain from walking through the school building or entering the pupil loos at the beginning and end of the school day.
Parents with children in Nursery, Reception and Year 1 should collect their children from their classrooms. This is a busy time of the day and in the interest of safeguarding our pupils we ask that parents do not engage in lengthy conversations during dismissal. If you wish to speak to the class teacher please email and arrange an appointment and our staff will be more than happy to arrange a convenient time. Year 2 pupils should be collected from the back playground. Parents will be asked to queue up to collect their children who will always say goodbye to their teacher before they leave.
Broadway Main Gate: Year 5 and Year 6
Broadway Church Yard Gate: Year 3 and Year 4
Broadway Main Gate: Year 5 and Year 6
Broadway Church Yard Gate: Year 3 and Year 4
Teachers will line pupils up and lead them down to the playgrounds for dismissal. Please stand in the line so that children and teachers can see you clearly. We will not operate a red card system for Year 6 pupils for the first few weeks in the Autumn Term, all pupils should be dropped and collected from school by an adult.
We are part of Ealing Safe Travel scheme and we encourage parents to walk or cycle to school or to use public transport to limit the traffic around the school sites. We ask parents to plan their journeys carefully and to avoid dangerous parking outside the school. More information can be found on our Travelling to School page.
