In line with the 1996 Education Act, we expect all children on roll to attend school every day, as long as they are fit and healthy enough to do so. We will endeavour to encourage children to attend, and to put in place appropriate procedures.
We recognise that at their current age, children cannot ensure their regular and punctual attendance at school. Parents are encouraged to take an active role in school life and to share and support their children’s learning. It is therefore vital that parents agree to ensuring their child’s regular and punctual attendance at the school.
We want to acknowledge the hard work and commitment of parents, who do support their child to attend above the expectation set by the government- 95%.

This NHS website offers useful advice on whether your child is well enough to attend school.
