School Day

Our school day is structured as follows:

8.45am School opens for students
9.15am Morning registration closes *
10.20am - 11.00am Morning Break and snack time
12.00pm - 1.15pm Lunch Break and lunch time 
1.30pm Afternoon registration closes
3.15pm End of day for students

* except where agreed otherwise due to a young person's Special Educational Needs or Disabilities. Please contact Danny Mills (Attendance Lead - dmills@highfield.cambs.sch.uk) if you believe this applies to your child.

Our school day for students is 6.5 hours long.

Break and eating times are excellent learning opportunities; much of pupils' learning regarding interactions with others and developing play, social and communication skills takes place during break times.

This means that our students typically experience 32.5 hours of learning each week.
