Attendance Update
I would like to thank you for your efforts in
improving attendance and punctuality.
Our attendance target this year is 95%, and we are on target to achieve it, if we achieve
our goal, we will be alongside the best schools in Wales. It is
clear that high attendance supports high achievement and as a school we have
evidence which clearly supports this.
Please remember to:
- Pick your child up from reception not the
class if your child has a medical appointment.
- Notify the school if your child is absent.
