School attendance is incredibly important at Eccleston Lane Ends. Our attendance target for this year is:
96%
Doors open for all classes at 8:40am (external gates will be open from 8:30am - please do not arrive earlier than this as it is unsafe to have children on site, unsupervised.)
Lessons will begin promptly and registers will close at 8:55am - if you arrive after this time you will be marked late.
The school day finishes for all classes at 3:15pm.
In a typical week this totals 32.5 hours for all year groups.
