Minimum expectation on length of the school week
On the 28th March 2022 the DfE published information about the expectation that all mainstream state-funded schools should provide a school week of at least 32.5 hours by September 2023.
Hawthorn Primary School currently is open for 30 hours and 50 minutes per week - this means to reach the minimum expectation we will have to extend the school day by 20 minutes.
We are currently in the planning stages for this - as it has implications for staffing and budget.
These are the steps in the process:
- The headteacher draws up plans to change the school day.
- The headteacher presents the plans to the Academy Committee who discuss and scrutinise them.
- The school consults with parents and other stakeholders - teaching staff / support staff / admin staff / site staff/ childminders etc
- The headteacher and other senior leader analyses the responses, and presents them to the Academy Committee and Trust board
- The Trust board considers the responses, and decides whether to go ahead with the proposed changes
- The start time of any changes are published.
