Attendance at The Willows
 

Regular attendance at school is vital to help children achieve and get the best possible start in life. Children who frequently miss school often fall behind. In fact, there is a strong link between regular school attendance and achieving good outcomes- Did you know that having an attendance rate of 80% is equivalent to missing a day a week!  As a parent/carer you are responsible for ensuring your child comes to school on time every day.  The Willows is a very supportive school and we strive for excellent attendance and will do our upmost to make sure all children get to into school.  We celebrate attendance with the children each week, with special reward assemblies termly. Please read our updated policy on attendance.
