School Day Consultation

Published on 17/06/22

We are proposing to make small changes to our school day from September after the day was changed for a temporary period to facilitate our response to the COVID pandemic. The proposed new school day is:

Time​

Activity​

08.30​

Arrive at school​

08.35 - 9.00​

Form time/assembly​

9.00 - 10.00​

Lesson 1​

10.00 - 11.00

Lesson 2​

11.00 - 11.10

Break​

11.10 - 12.10

Lesson 3​

12.10 - 13.40

Lesson 4/Lunch

Year 9/11 Lunch: 12.10 - 12.40

Year 7 Lunch: 12.40 - 13.10

Year 8/10 Lunch: 13.10 - 13.40

13.40 - 14.40 ​

Lesson 5​

14.40 - 15.25

Lesson 6 (Year 11)

After school enrichment Years 7 - 10 (optional)

Key changes to our current school day would be:

  1. A slightly earlier start by 10 minutes.
  2. A longer form time, enabling form tutors to work with students on:
    • Developing effective revision and self-study skills
    • Reading for pleasure
    • Developing positive Attitudes to Learning
  3. The reinstatement of a morning break which was removed in response to the COVID pandemic. This will allow students to have a comfort break during the morning session. 
  4. Lunch would take place later in the day, a change from the very early lunches we currently have in place. 
  5. The school day would end 10 minutes later.
  6. Lesson 6 for Year 11 students will be 45 minutes long.

We would appreciate your feedback on these proposals. Please share your feedback by emailing: enquiries@westfield.chorustrust.org using the email title: School Day Feedback

The deadline for submitting feedback is Wednesday 22nd June 2022.
