Reporting illness

If your child is unwell and unable to come to school, please notify the office (01446744606) or contact your child’s class teacher via Seesaw.  

If your child is not in school and we have not been told why we will send you a text at 9:30am reminding you to contact school and let us know why your child is off.  

If we do not hear back from you, we will try to contact you via the school phone (07432148732). 

If no reason is given for their absence, when your child returns a reason will need to be given. 

If your child has been off for 3 days and NO reason has been given to school or contact made, then a member of the senior leadership or family engagement teams will visit to check in and see how we can support you.  

If a reason for your child’s absence HAS been given such as for sickness or illness and your child hasn’t attended for 5 school days in a row a member of staff will visit to check in and offer support.
