Attendance
School Attendance Matters
Our school target for attendance is 96%. We will send home your child’s attendance each half term so you can easily keep track of their attendance rate. In discussions with the Educational Welfare Service, we have introduced the following guide for parents:
Attendance Chart
Attendance over one school year
If a pupil had:
98% attendance = less than 4 days absent from school
95% attendance = less than 10 days absent from school
90% attendance = 4 weeks absent from school
85% attendance = 5 ½ weeks absent from school
80% attendance = 7 ½ weeks absent from school
Remember: S.A.M. - School Attendance Matters!
If you have any queries or concerns about attendance or punctuality matters or would like us to support you in any way, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We look forward to continuing to work with you all to ensure that children’s attendance is the very best it can be to give them the very best chances in school and beyond.
