The number of late marks are reported as part of the end of year statement to parents. The child will be marked with ‘L’ meaning that they are late before the register closed. If the child comes in after this time, they must sign in late at the office. In the morning, the register is open in class at 8.50am and delivered to the school office at 9.00am. We have included these for reference in our Attendance policy. There are Absence and Attendance Codes as set out by Hampshire County Council in their Code of Conduct. Children are marked either present, late or absent. The Attendance Register is an important legal document and attendance of all children is marked twice a day by the class teacher. It is the responsibility of parents or carers that their child attends the school day and to inform the school if their child is absent. Our revised Attendance Policy ensures that St Peter’s continues to be in line with the DfE and Hampshire County Council common approach. Independent evidence shows that if a child’s attendance drops to 90% or less, there is a significant impact with underachievement. To ensure children make good progress at St Peter’s, attendance at school is vital.
