A spokesman for Calderwood Jewish Education said: “We would urge all parents to ensure that their children take advantage of these arrangements.

“By so doing, we maintain the continued co-operation and goodwill of the school head teachers and we make the weekly absence more widely acceptable and therefore easier for those who choose to leave early.”

Parents or pupils requiring extra time to reach home before the Shabbat should contact their head teacher.

Anyone facing difficulty with these arrangements should contact Calderwood Jewish Education on 0141 570 7070 or email cje@calderwoodlodge.e-renfrew.sch.uk
