How we communicate
We use a parent communication app called Weduc as the primary method of communication with our parents.
We use Weduc to:
- Send and receive messages (which parents receive as app notifications)
- Share letters and newsletters
- Share key dates on our calendar
- Share what’s been going on at the school in our newsfeed
- Share useful links in ‘The Hub’

School Uniform
We have thought carefully about our school uniform and have chosen it to be comfortable and practical for primary aged children whilst also being affordable for families. The sweatshirt/cardigan is the only part of the school uniform that requires the School logo.

School Meals
We offer a balanced and nutritious school meals menu where children are encouraged to try a variety of new foods.
Parent Consultation Evenings
We hold two parent consultation evenings each academic year. They take place via video appointment where the parent joins a live video call with the teacher.
No additional software needs to be downloaded as the video app is web-based.
Timings of the school day/term dates
Over a school year, pupils are required to attend school for 190 days. Children do not come into school on Staff Development Days or Bank Holidays.
Adisham CE Primary School is open from 7.30am – 5.30pm Monday to Friday.
Compulsory times for children are 8.45am – 3.15pm which equates to 6 hours 30 minutes a day, or 32.5 hours per week.
