Report Absence

What to do if your child is absent

If you know your child is going to be absent from school, you should:

• Where possible, ring school at the earliest opportunity to let them know
• Send a note to school explaining the reason for the absence(in advance if possible, eg: if your child has a doctors appointment)

Please note: School will contact parents if they are in any doubt as to the whereabouts of a child.

Absences can be reported in a number of ways

• Call school on: 01254 231279

• Text us on: 07582 584 636

We reserve the right to issue Fixed Penalty Notices to parents of children who persistently have unauthorised absences, such as:

• holidays in term time;
• persistent late arrival at school.
