Our doors open at 8:55am.

Our school day starts at 9:00am and finishes at 3:15pm. This equates to 31.25 hours per week.

Note: The Department for Education (DfE) in England expects all state-funded mainstream schools to operate a minimum school week of 32.5 hours (equivalent to 6.5 hours per day). 

Pictor Academy is a specialist provision, and our school hours are tailored to our students needs. In addition, breaks and lunchtimes are arranged on a class-by-class basis, according to the needs of our children.
