Attendance is hugely important. Even an attendance of 95%, which sounds impressive, means that students miss ten days of school a year - or two full weeks. There's a clear link between attendance and success in exams, so we encourage students to be in as much as possible. 

Parents should report any absences by 08:30 in the morning. The best way to do this is through our parent app, MyChildAtSchool. You can also call the school directly and leave a message.

Longer absences for non-medical reasons will only be considered in exceptional circumstances; parents should fill out the below form in advance. Authorisation will only be given in exceptional circumstances.
