WHERE IS YOUR CHILD?
If your child is not coming to school please ring (812339) and let us know before 9.00am. We then know that your child is safe. Again, please ring and inform us if you know that your child will be arriving late.

THE SCHOOL DAY
Children should arrive between 8.20am & 8.30am. An automatic bell rings at 8.30am. At this time children enter the school and go to their class. If a child arrives late, after 8.35am, s/he will need to enter the school through the main entrance as the playground doors are shut for security reasons. School staff do not supervise the playground before the start of school. School finishes at 2.45pm

SICKNESS AND INJURY AT SCHOOL
If your child becomes ill at School and does not feel well enough to continue we will contact you in order for you to come and take them home. If your son or daughter has been ill at home, please think carefully as to whether or not your child is well enough to come to school. As a rule of thumb, if a child has been sick during the night they will not be fit to learn.

We have many staff who have taken first aid training and we are happy to administer first aid for minor injuries. If an injury is more serious we always contact parents or seek emergency medical assistance. Please ensure that you keep us up to date with emergency contact numbers. Click here to download the personal information form. In the event of a 'bump on the head' a medical form is sent home with your child to inform you.

In the event that you need to collect your child from school for a doctor or dentist appointment please make sure that you come into school through the main entrance to collect them and sign them out. This is to make sure that we know at all times who is on the premises.

MEDICINES
Our normal practice is not to administer medicines in school. However, under some circumstances we will administer prescribed medicines. A parent or guardian will need to fill in a medication request form. Click here to download a form. We keep all prescribed medicines safely in the school office. We do not allow children to have any non-prescribed medicines or cough/throat sweets in school.

If your child has particular medical needs we will work with you and the school nurse to draw up an individual Health Care Plan for your child.

If children need inhalers they keep them in the classroom so that they are easily accessible.

COMPUTER SAFETY
Click here to download the Rules for responsible internet use. Computers are used widely at Wroughton Juniors and we are very aware of the potential safety problems. We have installed a filter system that monitors what children can look at on the Internet. We encourage the safe use of email and the internet. However, we cannot totally protect the children from inappropriate information they may receive. We therefore ask all children to agree to a set of rules regarding the safe use of email and internet at school.
