School Attendance Matters!
Every Day Counts – Every Lesson Counts
Why Attendance Is So Important
Children who attend school regularly:
- Achieve better results
- Build stronger friendships
- Feel more confident
- Have better life opportunities
Children with poor attendance can:
- Fall behind in learning
- Struggle with friendships
- Miss out on important experiences
- Find it harder to catch up later
Did You Know?
- 90% attendance = missing 19 school days a year (almost 4 weeks!)
- 80% attendance = missing 38 school days a year (almost 8 weeks!)
- Just 1 day off every 2 weeks adds up to a whole year of lost learning by the time your child leaves school.
How You Can Help
- Book medical/dental appointments outside school hours where possible
- Avoid term-time holidays
- Establish a consistent bedtime and morning routine
- Contact school if your child is unwell or struggling to attend
