Attendance Targets

A reminder we are going to organise in the future a text messaging service to inform parents when their child’s attendance drops below 95%. Can we please emphasise that this is not a message to parents informing you that your child may have been absent without your consent. It is simply a message to inform you that the percentage attendance has now dropped to a level where achievement and attainment will be affected.

Attendance Facts

One day a week absence is the equivalent over a school career of nearly 2.5 whole years of education missed. 10 days holiday leave a year is the equivalent of 2 whole terms of education missed. 15 minutes of lateness a day equals a year of education missed. Half a day a week missed during Years 10 & 11 can mean the loss of a grade for every GCSE taken.
