We are proud of our high attendance. Our children enjoy coming to school and our families support their children's learning by ensuring children come to school regularly and on time. 

​

If your child is ill, please ring us and leave a message on our answer machine, text in or speak to us. Please make sure you tell us before registration at 8:55am. If we do not know where your child is we will contact you in line with safeguarding and attendance policy guidance.

​

In line with DFE expectations and the Local Authority guidelines, term time absence for family holiday purposes is not permitted. Where families choose to take holiday in term time of 5 consecutive school days or more then we will follow guidelines and refer the case to the Local Authority who may choose to issue a fixed penalty notice. 

​

Short absences for family weddings, emergencies, bereavement or funerals are all authorised absences. These absences should be notified in writing for the attention of the Headteacher using the request for leave of absence form.

​

For all term time absence please complete a leave of absence request form. Please note, all term time holiday of 5 consecutive days or more will automatically be referred to the Local Authority in line with DFE and Local Authority guidance.

If families have any questions they should contact the Headteacher for more information or read the policy below.
