Our current class attendance figures are as follows:

In terms of individual attendance it is important to remember that:

100% attendance	0 days missed	Excellent
95% attendance	9 days of absence 1 week and 4 days of learning missed	Satisfactory
90% attendance	19 days of absence 3 weeks and 4 days of learning missed	Poor
85% attendance	28 days of absence 5 weeks and 3 days of learning missed	Very poor
80% attendance	38 days of absence 7 weeks and 3 days of learning missed	Unacceptable
75% attendance	46 days of absence 9 weeks and 1 day of learning missed	Unacceptable

For some parents, 90% may seem like an acceptable level of attendance but the reality is that 90% attendance means that your child will miss half a school day each week or 19 days of school during the school year—that’s nearly 4 school weeks.

Your child’s individual attendance will be shared with you at our upcoming Parents’ Evenings as part of their Initial Report.
