The School Day

at Moorfield School and Nursery

The broad outline for each day.

At Moorfield School and Nursery, our daily routine is designed to give every pupil a calm, structured start and a well-paced day, balancing focused lesson time with plenty of opportunity for play, rest, and social time.

From our Breakfast Club first thing in the morning through to After School Care in the early evening, the timetable below outlines exactly when your child will be in lessons, at break, at lunch, and enjoying our wraparound care options.

Please note that timings vary slightly by year group, particularly around the start and end of the day for our EYFS, Lower School, and Upper School pupils. If you have any questions about the school day or our wraparound care provision, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with the school office.
