Early morning supervision is available from 7.45am, free of charge. There is a charge of £10 per day for children who are on site between 4.00pm and 5.00pm and who are not involved in an extra-curricular activity. All children should be collected by 5.00pm as after this time there is no supervision.
We have a full time School Nurse who attends to the needs of pupils, dealing with minor injuries/problems. If pupils need to go home the School Nurse will contact parents directly. The School Nurse is willing to supervise the administration of medication during the school day should parents wish.
To keep traffic problems around the school to a minimum, we ask that parents/carers:
• Stagger arrival and departure times both to and from school.
• Do not park on the school site.
• Use public transport. Bancroft’s is on many local bus routes.
• Arrange to share lifts, where possible. Join the HomeRun platform to arrange lift shares.
Getting to Bancroft's has never been easier, thanks to our new school bus service.We are delighted to be collaborating with Zeelo on our home-to-school travel service, which offers a range of ticket options, including the Annual Pass, an Annual One-Way Pass, Termly Passes and the 30 Ride Bundle.This will provide convenient and adaptable travel throughout the academic year.This service is available to all pupils; however, Alphas (Year 3) must be accompanied by a sibling in P1 (Year 5) or higher.

• Safeguarding Policy
