ABSENCE PROCEDURE

Absences may be authorised by the College for genuine reasons such as illness, funerals, medical appointments, agreed sporting activities, music examinations, transitional visits to other schools etc.

An absence will be recorded as unauthorised where the reason for the absence is not acceptable to the College, medical evidence is not provided on request or where a child's absence is below 92%.

The Principal is able to authorise absence from the College if the request meets the criteria of an exceptional circumstance. 

Further details are available in the College's Attendance Policy.
