Leave of Absence Request
Absence requests
Absence requests are rarely granted and almost never to those whose attendance is below 98%.
Requests for holidays during term time are never authorised.
Requests for all forms of absence (including medical appointments) must be made well in advance and in writing.
Parents must download and complete the Leave of Absence Form and return it to the school; we ask for a month’s notice.
The Headteacher will then make a decision as to whether the absence is approved or not and this decision is final.
Any absence taken without authorisation, without suitable notice, or taken after the school has refused permission, will be treated as unauthorised.
A pattern of such absence, or a one off absence of more than one day, will trigger further intervention.
The school will always inform the appropriate staff at the Local Authority about any unauthorised absences.
We need to be advised each day of your child's absence.
