Term Dates

We have to register authorised and unauthorised absences from school. An authorised absence is one for which we receive a sick note, a phone call or an appropriate reason for absence. Holidays are not allowed to be taken in Term Time. If we do not receive any notification for a child's absence then this has to be logged as an unauthorised absence.

Please help by taking holidays in school holiday times.

Thank you.
