The school gates open at 8.20am and are locked at 8.40am.  All lessons start at 8.40am.  Once the gates are shut, students arriving after this time will be marked as late and given a one hour after school detention. 

We are aware there are exceptional circumstances where students cannot help arriving late and the Attendance Team and Mrs Watson will review these on an individual basis.  It is the responsibility of the students and their families to ensure that they arrive to school on time.

Please ensure a written message is sent into school with the pupil when they have to leave the Academy for medical and dental appointments during the school day.
