Wolverhampton Grammar Junior School is a busy place with lots of activities, trips and events taking place. Every child is treated as an individual and so there is no “typical” day, but what you can expect is a structured approach to your child’s learning experience.
Children can arrive at School from as early as 7.30am and make use of our Breakfast Club. Early Morning Club from 8am ensures your child is set up for the day ahead – whether that’s time with the Head or their Class Teacher, or play on the playground.
All children are registered from 8.50am followed by an Assembly. Lessons begin from 9.15am until 11am when children have a twenty-minute break to play and have refreshments (always including fruit).
Lesson 3 takes your child up to lunchtime where they are supervised and escorted to enjoy lunch by our award-winning caterers, Holroyd Howe. Teachers sit with the children and dedicated lunchtime supervisors ensure all children have enough to eat and plenty of variety too.
Afternoon registration and lessons start from 1.10pm and lessons end at 3.15pm for Reception Year 1 and 2, 3.45pm for Years 3 and 4, and 4pm for Years 5 and 6.
Most children stay at School for one of the many extra-curricular clubs or activities on offer. There really is something for everyone and all children can stay at School until 5.30pm at no extra charge to enjoy an activity or join in Homework Club.
For children with busy parents, a Late Club is available until 6.15pm
* lesson times vary slightly on a Wednesday.
