Here at The Oaks we are committed to providing a full educational experience for all pupils. We believe that if pupils are to benefit from education, regular attendance is vital. Regular and punctual attendance ensures that your child settles well, is happy at school and able to take advantage of all that The Oaks has to offer.

Our School Day

Our school day starts at 9am.  Our classroom doors are open from 8.50am and we have a staggered end time, at 3.15pm to 3.25pm.

Lateness

Pupils arriving after 9am must enter school by the main entrance and report to Reception where you will be asked to sign them in.

Absence

It is the parents’ responsibility to contact the school on the first day their child is absent by telephone before 9.30am. 

 This is a safeguarding issue requirement so that all parties know that your child is safe.  At The Oaks we operate a first day calling system.

If your child is unwell with a sickness bug we would ask that they remain at home until they are clear of any symptoms for 48 hours.
