Attendance and Punctuality
Regular attendance at school is essential to promote the education of all pupils. The school’s ethos demonstrates that children feel that their presence in school is important and that they are missed when they are absent or if they are late. Here at Rosedale Primary School we aim for all our pupils to achieve at least 97% attendance.
Please take a moment to read our Attendance Policy which will give you all the information you should need including how to report your childs absence and important information regarding taking holidays during term time.
We know that children do not always feel 100% every morning. A runny nose, mild cough, slight headache, or feeling a little tired doesn't necessarily mean they need to miss a day of school. Mild symptoms don't always mean a day off!
To help give you peace of mind, we have introduced our 'Under the Weather' form. Use this link to access the form
How It Works:
Simply let us know how your child is feeling by completing our 'Under the Weather' form before 930am (you can scan the QR code on our poster or follow the link provided on our school website).
Our staff will keep a close eye on your child throughout the day. If we have any concerns, we will get in touch with you right away.
By filling out the form, your child can stay in the Academy without missing out on vital learning or socializing with their friends, while you rest assured knowing they are being looked after.
If you are unsure whether your child is well enough to attend school, please refer to the official NHS guidance: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/is-my-child-too-ill-for-school/.
