Attendance Expectations:

• Regular school attendance is an important part of giving children the best possible start in life.
• The aim should be to attend 100% of the time.
• Students who miss school frequently can fall behind with their work and do less well in exams.
• Good attendance also shows potential employers that a young person is reliable.
• Research suggests that students who attend school regularly could also be at less risk of getting involved in antisocial behaviour or crime.
