Good attendance means being in school at least 97% of the time across one academic year.

We are committed to working with parents, carers and pupils to remove barriers to attendance. We recognise the importance of high attendance and the subsequent impact low rates of attendance have on progress and outcomes. Our policy is to proactively manage and improve attendance across the school community by working in partnership with you.

We want our pupils and students to get the most out of their school experience, including their attainment, wellbeing, and wider life chances.
