Why Good Attendance Matters:

Improved Academic Performance: Pupils who attend regularly are more likely to achieve higher grades and have a better understanding of the curriculum.
Stronger Social Connections: Attending school daily helps pupils build lasting friendships and develop essential teamwork skills.
Building Responsibility: Regular attendance fosters discipline and time management, key life skills for success in the future.

Attendance Expectations:

Be on Time: Pupils should arrive at school by 8:40 AM, ready to start their lessons promptly.
Attend Daily: Pupils are expected to attend school every day unless they have valid reason for absence.
Notify Us of Absences: If your child is unable to attend, please inform the school as early as possible by calling the school or using Class Charts. If you are unsure about whether to send your child to school when they are ill, you can find guidance about illness and school attendance from the NHS: Is my child too ill for school? - NHS (www.nhs.uk)
Provide Documentation: For extended or frequent absences, we may require medical notes or other documentation to ensure your child receives the necessary support upon their return.

Support for Families: We understand that challenges can arise, and our dedicated Team is here to help. If you’re experiencing difficulties with your child’s attendance, please reach out to the Attendance team or your child’s Head of Year or Pastoral Leader for guidance and assistance.

By working together, we can ensure that all pupils have the opportunity to thrive and succeed. Let’s make every day count!
