Academy Day

The Academy day starts at 8:25 a.m. and there are five lessons each day with four in the morning and one in the afternoon.

The Academy day is organised as follows;

Monday – Friday

Lunchtime

Your child will only be allowed to leave the school site during the lunch break if they are collected by an adult. A letter must be provided detailing who this adult will be. By collecting your child, you have accepted responsibility for your child’s safety and wellbeing whilst they are off the premises.

P4 & Lunch is 12:00 pm – 13:30 pm

Period 4 and Lunchtime are split giving each year group 30 minutes for lunch.

Students who are picked up for lunch should return to the academy five minutes before the end of their lunch break.

Manor Community Academy’s Dining Hall is very popular, with children able to select from a wide range of hot and cold foods. Importantly, all of the meals are quality controlled and meet nutritional and healthy food standards. The academy uses a swipe card system and cards are credited by placing cash in a special machine.

Parents are able to monitor how much money is being spent each day and what their children are consuming.

Parents and carers who wish to make enquiries about eligibility for free meals can do so by completing a form which is available on request, from the Academy Office.
