Do you know what your child's attendance is? Do you know what it means?
Improving attendance is everyone's business. The barriers to accessing education are wide and complex. The foundation of securing good attendance is a calm, safe and supportive environment where all pupils want to be and are keen to learn. Please find below further details of our Attendance Policy and information about the impact of good attendance.
Authorised absence from school
You are required under the Education Act (1996) to ensure your child attends school regularly.
Please be advised that no holidays will be authorised during term time.
If you need to request leave for exceptional circumstances please complete the form below and hand it in to the school office or call into the school office and complete the request form.
All requests are then personally handled by the Head Teacher.
Leave of absence taken without authorisation maybe referred to the Educational Welfare Service. This may result in prosecution proceedings or a Fixed Penalty Notice.
