Dear Parents and Carers
I hope you are well.
I am writing to inform you of changes to the timings of the school day that will come into effect from September 5th. These changes will add an extra 15 minutes to the school day and will bring Patcham High in line with the expectation of a 32.5 hour school week outlined in the recent Government White Paper.
The start of the school will be 8:30am and the end of the school day will be 3pm.
The new school day timetable
| 8:30am | Period 1 |
| 9:30am | Period 2 |
| 10:30am | BREAK |
| 10:50am | Tutor Time |
| 11:05am | DEAR |
| 11:20am | Period 3 |
| 12:20pm | Period 4 |
| 1:20pm | LUNCH |
| 2:00pm | Period 5 |
| 3:00pm | End of school day |
Brighton and Hove Buses are aware of these changes and will alter their schedules from September 5th accordingly.
If you have any concerns or require further clarification please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards
John McKee
Headteacher
