Thomas Jolyffe Primary School

Times of the school day

For all of our children, the doors open in the mornings at 8.45am and registers close at 8.55am. The children are expected to be in school before the registers close. All lessons start at 9.00. Children come into school to calm and relaxing music in their classrooms to help them focus on their morning task during registration. The end of the day times are slightly staggered, to enable families with more than one child to collect them with ease. Please see below for details.

 

The children are in school for 6.5 hours daily which is a total of 32.5 hours each week.

Thomas Jolyffe Primary School is determined for all pupils to succeed. Since the previous inspection, many changes have been made. The school has prioritised the development of the curriculum to promote high expectations for all pupils. Staff invest in pupils to build positive relationships with them. Personal development is a strength. The school provides opportunities to enrich pupils’ experiences. Pupils value participating in sporting competitions, such as cross country, football and netball. They also take on positions of responsibility, including school councillors and inclusion champions. Pupils value the leadership skills that they are developing. The school has developed an inclusive environment, where all pupils participate in every aspect of school life. Recently, the school has had a new library. The pupils are very proud of it and say, ‘It is a reading wonderland. It is like walking into another world.’ (OFSTED April 2024)
