Does your primary school give out a timetable?

DC's primary has always released a timetable the week before school starts. This year they didn't, so we assumed the DC would be given one this week. They haven't been given one beyond P.E. music, IT and art i.e. any subject that is not held in the classroom. My DC are finding it awkward, DC1 for example is now worrying that every day will be double maths instead of knowing that it will be e.g. on a Thursday like last year. DC2's teacher has printed out a timetable for the kids to stick in their book, but won't update the online one the parents have access to. DC1's teacher won't even do this and says the day's lesson plan will be on the blackboard in the morning. I have queried on the basis of DC1's SN and that it states he needs a clear structure for his school day but they have answered that this will allow the teachers a greater flexibility to teach and won't be releasing a fixed timetable.

Is this the same in most schools? DC1 refused to bring home vocab or maths this week because he doesn't know which day to take the book back for.

At my children’s old primary, if you asked for one, they would give you a copy. There was also a copy in the entrance to the classroom. My friends child has autism and having a copy made things so much better for her. Obviously things occasionally had to change but not too often.

I work in primary school. Classes don’t have timetables. There is a timetable for use of the hall (could be for PE, singing, drama) and the computer room (almost any subject could be involved) but no set timetables for anything else.

Independent school here - didn't get one in reception to year 3. Very detailed, printed one from year 4, given out on hard copy at tue beginning of the year (we put it on the drive) and available online for parents. Like OP, my son liked the certainty of knowing what happened every day.
