From January 2024, we no longer accept texts or emails to notify us of absences.
Calls should be made to notify school between 7.00-8.30am.
We will still text you if your child is absent.
You may receive a telephone call on the first day of absence from a member of the attendance/pastoral team. This is a courtesy call and is supportive. It is to discuss any issues and to offer any support. Please do not worry if you receive one of these calls, they are common practice.
Good attendance at school is acknowledged as a major factor in students’ development. Poor attendance leads to disrupted learning and causes under-achievement. Therefore, we ask that parents make every effort to ensure their children’s attendance is as high as possible.
It is a parent(s)/carer(s) responsibility to contact school before 9am on the first day of absence.
