Attendance
Attendance and Punctuality
We expect all children to attend school regularly and punctually. Even a short absence can impair on learning. Except for illness or a family emergency, please ensure your child attends school. You are required to contact the school to inform us of your child’s absence on the first day of absence.
We expect children to arrive at school punctually as this is vital for your child’s educational development and for the school and classroom organisation. We also operate a free Breakfast Club at the school from 8am to support parents.
Details of holidays, activities and training days are distributed to parents at the beginning of each academic year. We work very closely with the local authority attendance officers and family referrals are made to the service if poor attendance continues.
Please find below our holiday form. We kindly ask parents, where possible, to take holidays during school holidays and not during term time. The completed form should be submitted at least four weeks before the proposed period of absence.
If you have any difficulties regarding getting your child to school on time please feel free to discuss any issues you have with us.
