The Education Act 1996 states that all pupils should attend school regularly and punctually. ‘If a child of compulsory
school age, who is a registered pupil at a school fails to attend regularly at the school, his parent is guilty of an offence.
The school has a legal duty to mark the register and record the attendance of every child on its roll and to explain why
children are absent or late.
Head Teacher regularly reports on attendance and punctuality as part of the Full Governing Body.Authorised absences
involve children having time out of school for approved reasons, for example: illness, medical appointments, religious
observance, visits to a new school or exceptional 3 circumstances like attending a funeral.Parent must give clear
explanation and the purpose of children taking leave.
Arrival at School: The school gates will open at 8.45 am ,child should be in school by 9:00 am for the start of the school
day. The school gates will close at 9:00 am and if you arrive after 9.00 am children must enter the school via the school
office. If child comes into school after 9:05 am onward, you will be asked to sign the late book. If your child arrives
between 9.05 am – 9.15 am they will be marked late. If your child arrives after 9.15 am they will receive an unauthorised
