Absence and illness
If your child is unable to attend school, e.g. due to illness or medical appointments, please
register the absence in the Parent Portal or contact the school office in the morning to explain the reason for absence.​
If your child is absent and we have not received notification from home we will contact parents/carers by 9.30am to enquire as to why your child is absent. It is very important that this information is provided to the school and logged in our attendance system.
If your child has sickness, vomiting or diarrhoea, he or she must remain at home for a minimum of 48 hours after last occurrence to ensure time to recover and to minimise risk of passing on infection.
If you’re unsure, NHS guidance can help you decide whether your child is well enough to attend school.
