If a pupil is unable to attend school for any reason, parents are required to inform the school as soon as possible by phone or by personal message. A written note must be sent with the student to the roll teacher on the day of return.
Genuine reasons for absence include, sickness, attendance at funerals, medical / dental appointments that cannot be made outside of school time. Should you be in doubt, phone the school. Students who are absent from school must stay away from the school grounds or any function organised by the school. |

- On the first offence, parnets are notified, monitoring is issued and the pupil must do a lunchtime detention.
- On the second offence, three lunchtime detentions must be completed in addition to the monitoring.
