Attendance

We encourage all children to attend school every day and have a policy to not authorise holidays under any circumstances during term time. Any holidays taken will incur a fixed penalty fine for both parents.

If a child is unable to attend school due to illness it is important that the school are notified at the start of the day. We have a policy to phone parents if we are unsure of where the child is.

We work closely with the LA Educational Welfare Officer and any child who has attendance of less than 90% is considered as a Persistent Absentee and will be given attendance targets.
