Attendance

Regular attendance and punctuality are essential.  Only illness or extreme domestic needs are considered reasons for absence from school. Your child’s education is important to us and we want your child to achieve the best possible results.  To do this it is important that all absences are kept to an absolute minimum.

It is the parents/carers responsibility to notify school of any absence. Parents/carers must notify school of any further absences until the pupil returns to school.

Failure to inform school of any absences may result in the school undertaking home visits, requesting support from West Midlands Police to complete safe and well being checks or seeking Local Authority intervention.
