Our School Office Staff are here to help you, however here are a few items that may be useful to parents and carers which you can view or download from our website.
Our School Day
We request that all children arrive promptly so pupils can start their day in a calm and relaxed manner. Anyone arriving 10 minutes after their year group officially starts school will be asked to provide a reason for their lateness. This enables us to ensure all children are safely in school and maintain accurate attendance records. KS2 pupils by law have a longer teaching week than KS1 pupils.
During the school day, a certain amount of time is spent on registration, the daily act of collective worship, playtime and lunchtime. The remaining time is lesson time. At Moorside Primary Academy we have a 32.5 hour week. The structure of the school day is as follows:
Monday-Friday
