Please see the documents below for further information about Attendance.
Here is an outline of our registration process.
1. Register opens at 8:45am
Children who are physically present are marked “present” (Code: /)
Any child arriving later than 8:55am is marked “present-late” (Code: L)
2. Register closes at 9:15am (no later than 30 minutes after register opened)
All children arriving after 9:15am are marked “Absent” (Code: U)
3. For children marked absent, school should check messages on answer phone, emails, in-app/text messages, staff on gates and then recode the pupils with the necessary code. e.g “B” – off-site educational activity; “P” – participating in sports activity; “C”- illness, “M” – medical appointments; “E”-excluded
See: DfE Working together to improve school attendance (May 2022)* All other absences with no reason must be marked ‘N’
