Attendance and Punctuality

- It is expected that all pupils will be at their respective gate at 8:45am.
- Registers close at 9:00am.
- Pupils who arrive after this time will be recorded as ‘Late’.
- If pupils arrive late, they will miss an important part of the school day and this can affect their self-esteem and learning.
If you know your child will be late to school you must inform us immediately.
