Attendance
The children are expected to attend school both regularly and punctually so that their education and progress is not affected. It is our aim that all children have an attendance record of over 95% for the year and as close to 100% as possible.
If children are not well enough to attend school, parents must inform the office initially by phone or email and should be followed by a letter on return to school.
If children have an appointment during school time, they should attend for part of the school day.
No holidays are authorised by the school in term time, but parents may apply for special leave of absence to the Head teacher if there is an exceptional circumstance.
A National Framework for Penalty Notices has been introduced by the Department for Education and came into effect on the 19th August 2024. Please click here for further information from the Royal Borough of Greenwich.
The school is here to support you and if you are experiencing any problems getting your child to school, we encourage you to contact us so we can solve the situation.
