Do you want your child to be successful in school? Do you want your child to achieve the best academic standards they are capable of? Do you want your child to excel on sport, art, music, dance and technology?

If the answer is YES to these questions, you need to ensure your child has excellent school attendance.

School Attendance Matters.

Most children have good attendance and the school wants to celebrate that with them. We also want to encourage everyone to achieve high levels of attendance. As a parent you should ensure that your child attends school every day and you have a duty to ensure a good level of attendance.

A national research Department for Education report in March 2016 found a strong evidence based link between attendance and attainment in schools. Every extra day missed was associated with lower attainment outcome.
