Attendance
Miss Coyne who is our Attendance Officer, and your child's Class Teacher are the key contacts when reporting or discussing your child's attendance at school.
It is vitally important that your child attends school regularly and punctually. Each and every day your child is absent school requires a call or email to the Attendance/Absence department. (0208 570 1747 absence@hounslowtownprimary.co.uk)
If your child is absent for more than 3 consecutive days, we will request medical evidence, this could be in the form of a snapshot of an appointment text or a picture of any medication prescribed with their name and date on it.
School should be informed of any change to a child’s arrival and collection arrangements. At the close of school or the end of an after- school activity all children must leave the premises.
Term Time Leave for holidays etc; is not authorised or acceptable and a referral will be made to the Local Authority which then may result in a Penalty Notice Fine being issued. This also may result in your child being taken off of the school role, and you would need to find another alternative school for your child to attend. Any long-term absence must be put into writing to the Head teacher. Long absences are detrimental to your child’s progress at school.
Appointments should be made out of school hours, but in the cases where this is not possible please inform the school in advance and in writing with proof, so that it can be recorded as an authorised absence. For the safety of your children, they will not be allowed to leave school without a written note or evidence of the appointment e.g. the appointment card.
