Attendance last term...
The government is focussing on attendance at the moment. All children have the right to an education.
Each week, we have to send our attendance details to the ministry and they send us a report each term. The picture shows our school's statistics. for Term 1.
In April 2024, the Government announced a regular attendance target of 80 percent of students to be present for more than 90% of the term by 2030.
This report provides a snapshot of how our school is performing, including an overview of the reasons for absence broken down by justified and unjustified reasons, insightful trends and next steps.
Regular attendance over 90% attendance = missing fewer than 5 days across a term.
Irregular absence more than 80% and up to 90% attendance = absent for between 5 and 9 days across a term
Moderate absence more than 70% and up to 80% attendance = absent for between 10 and 14.5 days across a term
Chronic absence 70% attendance or less = absent for 15 days or more across a school term.
