The School Day

Registration

School begins at 8.55 am. Children are allowed into school from 8.45 am. We operate a ‘meet and greet’ policy, and all children are welcomed into school and their classroom by a member of staff.

Members of staff are present on the different doors and are available to answer any queries from parents and carers. Parents are responsible for the children until they enter school.

Absence Procedures

To report an absence please phone our office before 8:45am on 0191 4142557 or alternatively send a message through the Arbor app or email our school office on school@wwlcp.school

If we do not receive any message we will try making contact via text and phone call before referring this to our safeguarding lead.

These procedures are necessary because we are required by law to keep a record of ‘authorised’ and ‘unauthorised’ absences for the Education Welfare Office and Safeguarding Regulations. Please see Attendance Policy for further details.
