Attendance
Northcroft School Places Great Importance On Attendance.
Regular attendance is crucial for maximising student progress.
Here Are The Key Points Regarding Attendance:
1. Encouraging Good Attendance
The school actively encourages good attendance.
Pupils with excellent attendance receive certificates during end-of-term assemblies. These assemblies bring the school community together to share positive news and celebrate achievements..
2. Understanding Absences
The school recognises that students may occasionally be unwell or have appointments.
If your child is unwell or has an appointment, please call the main school number 01635 896344 promptly.
Messages can also be left on the school’s answering machine if direct communication with office staff is not possible.
3. Attendance Procedures
Office staff review attendance registers daily between 9:30 am and 10:00 am.
If no explanation for an absence has been received, the school will attempt to contact the parent or carer.
If contact cannot be established, the school may visit the family home or involve relevant authorities (police or social services).
4. Communication and Support
If a child returns to school without an explanation for their absence, the parent or carer will be contacted.
In cases of ongoing attendance concerns, the Headteacher will address the issue with the parent or carer.
The Pastoral Lead provides support for re-engagement.
If necessary, the Headteacher may invite parents/carers and SEN (Special Educational Needs) to discuss attendance.
