School times

At Hasmonean Primary School we open the school for a soft start.   We run a series of interventions in the class for all children and then run specialised interventions for different groups as well. All children must be in school when the register is taken.

Our break time in KS1 is 10.40 -10.55 and 2.40 – 2.55.

Our break time in KS2 is 11.00-11.15

Uniform and dress code

School uniform and appearance research has shown that pupils who wear school uniform perform better in the classroom and feel secure. Our uniform shows that we are part of a school community and Hasmonean pupils must wear their uniform with pride. In addition, the Jewish ethos of our school is central to its existence and is dependent not only on our teaching of Jewish knowledge but also on the way we behave as Jews within the school community. The school has agreed upon this dress code and we would be grateful if all our parents could adhere to it.
