There
is a clear link between poor attendance at school and lower academic
achievement. We aim to provide an
effective and efficient system for monitoring attendance and punctuality, and
to encourage students to take full advantage of their educational opportunities
by attending school regularly.
·
Students
are expected to be in school, fully prepared for the school day, by 6.55 am and
to register with their Class Teacher / Form Tutor at 7.00 am
·
Parents
are expected to telephone the school before 7.15 am to explain all absences.
·
The
school will contact parents if students have failed to arrive by 9.15 am and
notice of their absence has not been received.
Parents of poor attenders may be called sooner.
Please
refer to our Attendance Policy for further detailed information.
