Planned Absence Requests

Children attending school full time is very important for their wellbeing and education, and research shows a link between low attendance and lower levels of achievement.  If parents are unsure about whether or not a child who has an illness should attend school, this NHS page has some very useful advice.

From time to time, though, planned absence from school is necessary.  If you need to request this, please do so either by completing this form.

If you are considering a holiday in term time, please read this important information first.
