Your Child’s Attendance
Below is information of guidance concerning attendance levels and the potential effect on pupil progress caused by unauthorised absences or taking long holidays during term-time.
Please continue to work to achieve or maintain excellent attendance at school. If you do need support in improving your child’s attendance, please come and speak to us. In some cases, you will be invited in by the Education Welfare Officer (EWO) to discuss how we can support and encourage you to raise your child's attendance.
