Please find attached a letter outlining the significant impact that attendance has on student outcomes, particularly for those preparing for public examinations.
As we move into the crucial months leading up to the exam period, it is vital that all students attend school regularly and make the most of every lesson and support opportunity available to them. This is especially important for students in Year 11 and Year 13, who are approaching their GCSE and A-Level examinations.
Consistent attendance ensures that students benefit from high-quality teaching, structured revision, and the guidance of their teachers at a time when it matters most. Even small gaps in attendance can mean missed learning and reduced confidence when examinations arrive.
We therefore ask parents and carers to support the school by ensuring that students attend every day wherever possible, arrive punctually, and avoid unnecessary absences during this important period.
Thank you for your continued support in helping our students achieve their very best outcomes.
