Attendance Snippet!  Children miss out if they miss school

Other children keep on learning while a child is absent. When a child returns there are learning gaps. The child may feel;

  • the teacher did not explain
  • other children know more
  • not part of teamwork - in class or in the playground

They are always trying to catch up on missed work and activities. Costs to the child may include;

  • feelings of social isolation
  • loss of learning and social confidence
  • reduced self-esteem
