Why is good attendance important?
Good attendance at school is vital for pupils to achieve their full education potential. Pupils with good attendance records benefit in the following ways:
-
Continuity of learning which makes progress and retention easier
-
Enhanced performance in examinations
-
Continuity of relationships and friendships
-
Good habits are formed for later life
The Importance of Punctuality
It is important that pupils are punctual so that they do not miss out on the beginning of each school day. Children must attend on time to be given a present mark for the session. Arrival after registration has closed (9.30am) will result in an unauthorised absence for the morning session.

If a pupil arrives late to school every day, their learning begins to suffer. Take a look at how much lost learning time this would equate to.
