At Vicarage Park C of E Primary School, we recognise that regular attendance is vital for children's academic achievement, wellbeing and social development. Attendance is a legal requirement, and parents have a statutory duty to ensure their child attends school regularly and punctually.
We are committed to working in partnership with families to promote excellent attendance and to provide support where needed. The documents and guidance below outline current attendance expectations, procedures for reporting absences, and information from Westmorland and Furness Council regarding unauthorised absences, fixed penalty notices and attendance regulations. Together, we can ensure every child has the best opportunity to thrive and succeed.
