Attendance Matters

28th Sep 2022

Dear Parents/Guardians
As we move away from the Pandemic it is vital that our children are attending school regularly and arrive at school on time. School begins with a sharing of what is going to happen that day and this is key in settling the children. Being at school every day is a way of ensuring that children are accessing the full curriculum and also helps to support and maintain friendships and positive behaviours.

Poor attendance must be highlighted to the Education Welfare Service as parents have a duty to ensure their child comes to school.

I have attached DENI guidance for parents and ask you to read this carefully.

Many thanks
Mrs. Hannaway
