Attendance
Attendance this week has been low. Collection at 1.15pm due to the extreme heat has not
been recorded as an absence. Authorised and unauthorised absence affects the overall attendance figure for the class. Absence coding is at my discretion and where school has stayed open, children have been expected in school unless genuinely ill. When absences have been recorded as unauthorised this has absolutely no benefit to the school, we are judged by Ofsted using this data,
so it is not a decision made lightly.
