Attendance

The school is committed to ensuring a high rate of attendance. We ask all parents to inform the school of any absence before 10.00 am.

The Family Liaison Officer will telephone/contact parents on the same day of absence if the parent has not contacted the school.

Repeated or unexplained absences will be followed up with a visit from the educational welfare office.

Children are asked to be punctual. The register will be taken at 9.00 am and any child not in class for that time will be marked as late.

Lateness and absence will be noted on the child’s Annual School Report. 100% attendance is rewarded on a termly and annual basis with certificates.

Parents are advised not to take their children on holidays in term time. Time out of school disrupts learning and progress is affected considerably.
