At Ilchester Community Primary School, we believe that regular attendance is crucial for the academic success and overall well-being of our students. Consistent attendance helps students build a strong foundation for learning, develop good habits, and fully participate in the school community. Our commitment to promoting excellent attendance is reflected in the following principles:

1. Importance of Attendance: We emphasise the importance of regular attendance and punctuality, as they are key factors in achieving academic success and fostering a positive learning environment.
2. Supportive Environment: We strive to create a welcoming and supportive atmosphere where students feel safe, valued, and motivated to attend school every day.
3. Parental Partnership: We work closely with parents and guardians to address any barriers to attendance, providing support and resources to help ensure that students can attend school regularly.
4. Monitoring and Communication: We monitor attendance closely and communicate regularly with parents about their child’s attendance record, offering assistance and intervention when necessary.

We are committed to working together with families to ensure that every student at Ilchester Community Primary School has the opportunity to achieve their full potential through regular and consistent attendance.
