Elm Tree Primary Academy

Attendance

Parents and guardians are legally required to ensure their children are in school every day. Our attendance target as a school is 96%.

We as a school aim to be fair and consistent in our attendance policy. We will keep parents informed if their child’s level of attendance falls and will write to you if your child’s attendance percentage drops to a level that causes concern. Our Pastoral Lead, Mrs Baker, is always available to meet with parents who are having any difficulties with their child attending school for whatever reason. An Education Welfare Officer is also linked to the school to discuss any absence concerns.
