The Ridgeway School is open 6.5 hours per day for 5 days per week. The total number of hours per week is 32.5 hours.

Our start time is 8:45am and our finish time is 3:15pm.

Our lessons in all year groups start promptly at 9:00am which is why it is really important that the children arrive at school at 8:45am so that they can sort out their belongings and sit down with their friends for registration. During this time there is a morning warm up in all classes before the children start the first lesson.

Children who arrive late to school are flustered and often miss the teacher input at the beginning of the lesson making them anxious as they are unsure of what they should be doing. Please help prevent this by ensuring your children arrive in good time.
