Firstly, may we thank parents and carers who regularly ensure that their children attend school at all times. We understand that absence is sometimes inevitable. We are proud of the fact that as a school our attendance is regularly above the national average.
There is a strong correlation between high attendance and high achievement as well as emotional health and positive relationships, and so we should all be working together to give children the best possible start in life.
Research shows that absence from school, for whatever reason, can disadvantage a child by creating gaps in learning, which affect a child's ability to succeed.
As such we will monitor all absence thoroughly and all attendance data is shared with the Local Authority.
We will contact you if we have any concerns regarding your child's attendance.
