My routers are able to pick up the NTP servers time and clock settings.
my switches on the other hand are unable to.
I have attached the packet tracer file.
Thanks in advance for any advice :)

Hi @daniel_growth ,
NTP is a layer3 protocol, so switches must have an IP address and gateway in their administration vlan interface.
After set up the IP parameters to the switches, I suggest you try a ping to the NTP server.
For example:
Warmingham-Switch(config)#interface vlan 1
Warmingham-Switch(config-if)#ip address 10.0.2.4 255.255.255.224
Warmingham-Switch(config-if)#no shutdown
Warmingham-Switch(config-if)#exit
Warmingham-Switch(config)#ip default-gateway 10.0.2.1
Warmingham-Switch#ping 10.0.2.3
Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 0/0/0 ms
Warmingham-Switch#show clock
11:18:35.557 UTC Wed Sep 4 2019
