The School and its staff regard the regular attendance of children at school as being vital to each child's education and development.  It is for this reason that non attendances (however short or infrequent) are treated seriously.  It remains the policy of the school to only sanction non-attendance during term time in exceptional circumstances.

If your child has unauthorised leave of absence you may either be issued with a Penalty Notice of £160 per parent per child (discounted to £80 if paid within 21 days) or, your case could be referred by the Local Authority directly to the Magistrates' Court for the purposes of a criminal prosecution.

Good attendance is considered to be 96% or more with no unauthorised absences.

Please note term dates include school Inset training days and are therefore different to dates published on the Leicestershire County Council website.
