Attendance
Why getting to school on time, every day, matters!
Missing out on lessons leaves children vulnerable to falling behind.
We seek to ensure that all our pupils receive a full-time education which maximizes opportunities for each pupil to realise their true potential both socially and academically.
Over a period of five school years, a pupil with 90% attendance will have missed half of a whole year of schooling. Similarly, pupils with poor punctuality miss valuable lesson time and, if it happens regularly, progress will be jeopardised.
We expect outstanding attendance for all, however we do recognise that there are times when pupils will absent from school.
If attendance drops below 97% the school will contact parents immediately to put a plan in place to make improvements.
This form is for students who are feeling mildly unwell or experiencing mental health concerns but are still able to attend school. It allows us to record how they are feeling so that staff can monitor their wellbeing and provide appropriate support throughout the school day.
