School Hours

The Department for Education (DfE) has recently set a requirement that state-funded schools deliver a school week of a minimum of 32.5 (32 hours and 30 minutes) hours for children in Years 1-6. We welcome this statutory change, which will support excellent outcomes for all children. We use this additional time at the start of the day to support children’s wellbeing and for the consolidation of key skills.
