Attendance
We strive for Excellence in all areas of school life, including attendance. Good attendance and punctuality to school are essential for students to achieve their full potential and gain from all areas of school life.
At St Gabriel's CofE Primary School, parents and teachers work together to achieve good attendance and punctuality. W wish for children to reach their full potential, spirituality, intellectually, emotionally and physically. We wish for children to develop good habits to help them to become supportive, caring , reliable and responsible adults. We promote good attendance and punctuality to help achieve these aims.
The law requires school-aged children to attend full time education and it is the responsibility of parents to ensure children attend school regularly ( at least 95% attendance) and be on time. The Home School Agreement clearly sets out St Gabriel's CofE Primary School's expectation of parental responsibility to make sure that children attend at least 96% of time and arrive on time. All parents are encouraged to sign the Home School Agreement.
