If a child misses 8 days or more a year they will not achieve 96% this is reportable to Lancashire County Council and may result in a Penalty Notice being issued.
Home Time Request At home time if the school gates are closed please can we ask all who are collecting children please wait to enter the school grounds. The reason they are closed is for safety as the Infant children need to return to their class from the Junior Hall. Thank you!
Please ensure your children are in school every day and on time. School starts at 8.55am.
Reminders
97% for whole school attendance
