Good attendance and being on time are two of the most important ways to make sure pupils get the most out of their time in school. Regular absence and lateness can seriously affect a child’s learning, their friendships and their social development.

We are very excited to see the positive effect this initiative is having on the engagement of our pupils. Our dedicated team of pastoral and administrative staff make attendance a key focus every day. We all have a responsibility to encourage good attendance and welcome contact with parents who may have any concerns.
