Absences reporting
As a parent or carer, you are responsible for ensuring your child attends school every day when they are of compulsory school age. You must explain all absences to the school within 7 days. Absences can be explained via reply to daily absence/late arrive SMS, email, absentee letter, or a phone call to the school.
