Why Keeping Us in the Loop Matters: A Quick Note on Absence Reporting
Sniffles, sudden bugs, and unexpected sick days are a completely normal part of school life.
When your child is feeling under the weather, your first priority is naturally looking after them and making sure they get enough rest. However, taking just a few moments to let the school know they won’t be attending is equally important.
Reporting your child’s absence every single day they are off is primarily about safeguarding.
If a pupil does not arrive for morning registration and we haven’t heard from you, our staff have a duty of care to investigate and ensure that child is safe.
An automated link will be sent to parents of any child who has not already let school know the reason for the child being absent at 9:30am
Please click the absence reporting link on our website as early as you can each morning they are away or speak to the admin team on 01302 722353.
Thank you for working with us to keep all our students safe and accounted for—and if you are currently nursing a sick child at home, we wish them a very speedy recovery!
