Attendance and Punctuality
Attendance and Punctuality at Henry Whipple
Our expectation:
97% minimum for all children
Our 'minimum' expectation for attendance is 97%. This is reflective of our Believe, Belong, Achieve ethos and the highest expectations we have for all, in terms of learning, teaching, attendance, punctuality and behaviour.
We expect all children to arrive on time and ready for learning. Learning begins as soon as children arrive at school
Attendance and Punctuality is a vital part of safeguarding and ensuring we are enabling the best life chances for all our children.
