Attendance Concerns – When necessary parents are contacted by class teachers/tutors/Heads, and invited to discuss how the situation may be avoided.
Absences – Parents/carers should contact the school on the first day of their child’s absence. When parents/carers notify us of their child’s absence it is important that they provide us with details of the reason for their absence. It is important that we receive accurate information from parents with reasons for the child’s absence. This information is used to determine whether the absence is authorised or unauthorised.
Request for Future Leave of Absence – All parents requesting leave of absence for exceptional circumstances must complete this form. Authorised absence is where the School has either given approval in advance for a pupil to be away or accepted an explanation offered afterwards as satisfactory reason for absence.
Punctuality and Lateness – Children should be delivered to and collected from School promptly. If a child is late for School, please ensure he/she or the parents sign the Late Book, which can be found on the Reception desk. Please remember lateness must be avoided at all times.
The main School gate will be closed at 09:05 am. At 9:10 am registration is closed.
