General Information

All classes finish at 12.10pm on a Friday

Children in Primary 1 attend school for the whole day from the beginning of the session in August

Admission to school

As the Head Teacher has teaching commitments, it would be appreciated if an appointment were made prior to visiting or enrolling pupils.

On enrolment parents are asked to complete a Phoenix Data Capture form which is used to create an electronic file.  Emergency details as well as attendance records and national test results are entered into this file as your child progresses through school.  The data is maintained in accordance with the Data Protection Act and will not be passed onto any other organisation without your prior approval unless this is a legal requirement.  Should you wish to view this information an application for a Data Subject Access Report must be made to the Director of Corporate Services.

Pupils Outwith the Catchment Area

Parents should note that there is no automatic progression from a nursery class to the primary school, should their children live outside the delineated area.  Similarly, pupils in Primary 7 who live out with the delineated area are not automatically entitled to progress from their primary to its associated secondary school.

Transport

Pupils under 8 years who live more than 2 miles from school and those over 8 years who live more than 3 miles from school (within the delineated area), are entitled to free transport.  Application forms are available from the school office and at enrolment.  Infant pupils may have to share transport with P4-7 and have to remain at school until 3.40pm.

School security

The security system has ‘alarmed’ all Fire Exits and entrances.  Parents should enter by the main door, using the visitor’s bell.
Pupil entrances automatically lock about ten minutes after starting times.  Pupils who are a few minutes late should still use their normal entrance door.  If later than ten minutes, they will have to use the visitor’s bell at the front door.  It would be appreciated if efforts were made to minimise such late arrivals.
