Please ensure that your child is in school on time (by 9.00). Once the register is closed, a child is marked absent and this is unauthorised. Children miss vital learning if they are late and it can also be very unsettling. We expect children in school every day unless they are very unwell in which case you must phone or email the school office. Holidays must NOT be booked in school time. If they are, this will be unauthorised and referred for a fixed penalty notice as per government guidance. When children miss school, it has a lasting impact on both their academic progress and their mental well being. It can also really impact their future life chances. If you have difficulty getting your child in to school, please contact the school office and make an appointment to see Mrs Gordon, Mrs Robins or Mrs Finch.
