Attendance
It is important for a child to attend school regularly and maintain a pattern of good attendance to take full advantage of the educational opportunities.
It is not advisable to take your child/ren on a leave of absence during term time as this causes disruption to their education. Schools must follow the law in this regard and may only grant leave in exceptional circumstances if certain criteria are fulfilled.
