Attendance At School
Fri 05 Sep 2025Attendance remains a core focus for our school this academic year, and we have made many changes to reflect this. Firstly, we have released an updated version of our Attendance Policy ( available on our website - Key Info – Policies - Attendance policy 2025-26) and we encourage you to have a read through this to familiarise yourselves with our procedures. We are also pleased to announce we will be working collaboratively with the national Inclusive Attendance initiative, there will be more details about this released soon.
A reminder that you must tell us if you if your child is not attending school that day and that penalty notices will be issued for term time leave for 5 days or more. Again more details will be issued in due course.
