SCHOOL HOURS & ATTENDANCE

The Graduate habits of Perseverance is firstly shown in attendance and completion of set work. All students are expected to attend all their programmed lessons and activities.

Parents / caregivers can support us in this by ensuring all absences from school are minimal and are explained by a phone call to the school on the morning of the absence before 10:30am, followed up with a note to the home-group teacher in the student’s Pathway Planner (diary) and/or a medical certificate. Planned absences should be communicated to the home- group teacher in advance.

Unexplained absences or lateness will result in attendance at an after-school homework session or a detention.

Attendance is monitored through the school’s DayMap program.
