Absence due to Illness/Medical

If your child is unwell and cannot attend school, you need to phone 01604 751130  by am with the following information:

• Name
• Class
• Reason for absence

If your child will be absent because of a medical appointment, please inform the office prior to the appointment. You will be asked for evidence of this. e.g text or letter.

Lateness

Your child needs to be in their classroom by 8.55am. If they arrive after that time, please bring your child to the school office to sign them in.

Absence due to holiday

School needs to be informed in advance if you are planning to take your child on holiday during term time. A request for time off Form needs to be completed (see link below) and returned to the school office, who will then make an appointment for you to speak with Miss Brear or Miss Sutton.

Schools are no longer able to authorise absence for family holidays. So please be aware that if you do decide to take your child on holiday during term time you may be subject to a fine from the Northamptonshire County Council Education Entitlement Services team.
