Attendance

Our attendance target for this year is 97%.

Nansen Primary School, is dedicated to working in partnership with parents and the Local Authority to improve school attendance.

Ensuring that your child/ren are in school each day, will give them the best possible chance to achieve their academic potential and have real opportunity in further education and the world of work.

Education is important. Children should be at school, on time and ready to learn, every day the school is open, unless the reason for the absence is unavoidable. 90% attendance sounds good to some people but this is ½ day missed every week! Over a school year this is 4 weeks – 100 lessons lost!

Attendance = Achievement!
