The Importance of Attending School
At St. Edward’s Catholic Primary School it is our priority that all our children fulfil their highest potential. To do this, it is essential that they attend school on a regular basis. The diagram, in the attached document below clearly demonstrates how, having just a few days off, can have a detrimental effect on learning.
Each week, the class with the best attendance record will have the honour of receiving and displaying our attendance trophy.
Every half term, children with 100% will be recognised in our special ‘Attendance Assembly’ with a certificate and a 100% pencil and sticker. Children really enjoy this recognition.
We are here to help. If you or your child are having struggles getting into school every day, please come and speak with us. Ms Finnigan, our attendance officer and FLO is always available at the gate each morning and afternoon for a chat. We will do everything we can to ensure you feel supported in this important responsibility of getting your children to school every single day.
