Absences from school

Parents are asked to telephone the school (01285 652480 Option 1) or send notification via ParentMail to explain every absence. Parents are legally obliged to submit a written Absence Request (see the online version below) to obtain permission for any planned absences during term-time, such as a family holiday

Permission will be given at the discretion of the Head teacher. You will need to complete an absence request form and return it to school, giving a reasonable period of notice. Please speak to the school office if you require a paper copy of the request form.
