The school opens at 8.20am and parents of children in Reception and Year 1 are welcome to accompany their children into their classrooms. The whole school gathers at 8.45am for daily assembly, which helps to reinforce a sense of unity and shared identity in the school and provides an opportunity to promote the ethos of kindness and care for others. It is also a time to acknowledge and applaud endeavour and achievement. The assemblies are non-denominational. The customs and beliefs that children of all religions bring into the school are recognised and appreciated. Hymns and seasonal songs are sung and children are encouraged to play, sing, perform, recite and contribute in an active way to these daily gatherings.

Lessons begin at 9.00am and a balanced timetable includes 30-minute lessons with a morning break and a play period at lunch time. Lunch takes place between 12.00am and 1.30pm in three sittings in a dedicated Lunch Room. Hot lunches are provided but those who prefer may bring a packed lunch. Sport, art and drama generally take place in the afternoon. At the end of the school day there is a variety of after-school clubs that children may join (see details in the After-School Clubs section).

Going-home times are as follows:

Reception and Year 1 at 3.10pm

Year 2 at 3.20pm

Years 3 and 4 at 3.40pm

Years 5 to 8 at 4.00pm

There is a late-club for siblings and for those waiting for after-school clubs.
