Teachers believe that for children to make the most out of their education and to form strong social networks they must attend school regularly.
School starts at 8.55am.
It is important for students to be at school on time to maximise their learning opportunities. It is a legal obligation that parents report all absences to the school. Parents must provide an explanation for absences to the school within 7 days from the first day of any period of absence. Where an explanation has not been received within the 7-day timeframe, the school will record the absence as unjustified on the student's record.
Did you know that every minute late, and a day here and there away from school, all adds up? Check out the posters below to see just how much!
