School Day and Opening Hours

Wishmore Cross School Day

Our school day starts with a breakfast club offer serving hot food and drink and is open every day from 8.45am. We feel that a healthy breakfast is key to success for all young people. This sets the students up for a full range of lessons in the format listed below.  The school day ends for all students at 2.40pm.
