On the day Absence

In the event that a student is unable to come into school due to illness or other unforeseen circumstance, the absence must be reported by a parent/carer by 8.50AM latest, each and every morning of absence.

Here is some useful guidance from the NHS: Is my child too ill for school?

In the event that we have not heard from a parent/carer, we will make contact via email or phone call as soon as possible.
