What do you if your child is late, ill or has an appointment?

Children who are late should come to the main school office and report to Mrs Benbow or Miss Jones where they will need to be signed in by the adult bringing them to school. They must be brought to the school office by an accompanying adult who will be asked to complete the late register.

If your child is ill, please telephone or email the school as soon as possible and send an absence note when your child returns to school. These absences will be recorded as Authorised. Once the registers have closed office staff will look at the absences and if we do not have a reason we will contact the parent.

Children who need to leave the school during the school day for an appointment must be collected from the main entrance by a responsible adult. Please inform us in writing so that an exit permit can be issued. Whenever a child leaves the school during the school day the adult who collects them will need to sign the child out on the electronic signing out system.
