Good attendance is a vital component in the big picture of how well children get on at school. Coming to school regularly helps children to make friends, form good bonds with their teachers and build on learning every day.

 

The national average for attendance is 96.1% and our goal is for our attendance at St Thomas Cantilupe to be 97%. Every day really does count. 

 

If you ever have concerns about your child's attendance or if we do we will work together to make sure that we have a plan to get things back on track. By talking things through we can always find a way forwards. 

 

I am pleased to say that attendance at St Thomas is good and improving. This is undoubtedly the result of children enjoying school and is helping each child to make good progress with learning.
