It is important for all our pupils to come to school every day and on time! Regular attendance and punctuality helps us learn well in school, make friends and have fun. When we miss school, it is easy to fall behind and miss out on exciting lessons and activities. Poor attendance can also affect our friendships, making it harder to join in class discussions and group projects.

In line with Department for Education guidance we won’t be authorising any holidays during term time, absences that are not illness related will only be authorised in exceptional circumstances. Please book holidays outside of term time, and appointments outside school hours if possible – if not possible then your child should attend school before and after the appointment and we will need to see evidence (hospital, appointment card) to authorise the absence.

We understand sometimes children can feel unwell in the mornings, but we encourage you to send them to school if they have a minor cough or cold. See NHS guidelines for further details.

We are able to administer medication to your child if they are in school and require it. Please bring it to the school of office and a staff member will give you a consent form to complete.
