ATTENDANCE MATTERS!

 

GOOD ATTENDANCE AND PUNCTUALITY IS VITAL. 

Please ensure your child arrives at school by 8.40am as lessons start promptly.

 

On occasions when your child is absent for any reason, please contact the school before 9.00am on the first day of  absence.

 

Requests for a child to have time off during term-time can only be granted in very exceptional circumstances.  Requests MUST come via an absence request form with at least two weeks notice.

 

If you require further information about attendance, please call into school.
