School Day

At the beginning of the day, the gates to the site and doors into the school open at 8.35am. Registration for all children is at 8.45am. 

At this time the doors into children’s cloakrooms are locked and any children arriving after this time must enter through the school office and will be recorded as late. We encourage children to come onto the school site on their own - any messages for class teachers can be passed to the staff at the gate.

  • Children have a morning break of 15 minutes and children’s lunchtime runs from 12.15 - 1.00pm
  • School finishes at 3.15pm and children should be collected promptly at this time.
  • The total amount of time children are at Tangmere Primary Academy each week is 32.5 hours.
