Why Attendance Matters for Your Child’s Success

Every school day counts! Good attendance is one of the most important factors in helping your child achieve their best. When children miss school, they miss out on valuable learning and opportunities to build confidence and friendships.

Did you know?
Even 90% attendance means your child is missing almost two weeks of learning over the school year. This can make a big difference to their progress. Please remember:

• Holidays during term time cannot be authorised and will be recorded as unauthorised absences.
• Consistent attendance helps your child stay on track and reach their full potential.

If your child is finding it hard to come to school, don’t worry—we’re here to help. Speak to your child’s teacher or contact our Pastoral Team: Mr Gallagher, Mrs Taggart, or Mrs McKernan. We’ll work with you to find solutions and support your child.

This year in our school, we are striving to achieve an average pupil attendance of 95% Together, let’s make every day count! Mr Gallagher
