ATTENDANCE
Parents should contact the school by phone before 10.00am on the morning of the
first day of absence, stating the reason and possible length of absence. These
messages will be entered directly onto the electronic register. If no reason has been
received by the teacher upon completion of the electronic register, parents will be
contacted by the Admin Team via text message. Reasons for absence will then be
entered onto the electronic register. If no reason for the absence is received by
the Friday following the child’s return, the absence will be marked as an ‘O’ for
unauthorised absence.

End of day
We ask that you do not send your child to school before 8.30 am. They do not need
to arrive before this time, unless in S_C Kids or Early Birds. A teacher will be on
duty in each playground from this time. All children should come into the lower
school playground, near the main entrance, before Y5 and Y6 children make their way
into the upper school playground along the pathway in front of the Sports Hall. If it
is wet or icy the children will go directly to their classrooms through the playground
entrance.
The main school gates close at 9.10 am. Children should be in class by 8.55am, when
registers open. If a child arrives during registration, ie after 8.55am, they will be
marked as ‘L’, with the time of arrival noted in the comments box of the electronic
register. Registers close at 9.10 am. If a child is not in class by this time they will
be marked as ‘N’.
