Absence

Attendance is a legal requirement for all children. At Errington we feel that it is so important for your child’s education to be at school as often as able. Please could you help keep our attendance figures at a high level and try to have your child in school everyday.

If your child is going to be absent through illness please contact the school office from 8.15am. You will be asked the reason for your child’s illness which will be recorded. If your child does not arrive at school and we have no record of absence then the office staff will contact you for a reason of absence. If you have an appointment for your child, please could you inform the office and with evidence of the appointment e.g. hospital card, dental card etc.

To report an absence please call the school office on  01642 482002 or e-mail the school office on office@tvc.ac.uk.
