Your child’s education is very important.
Regular, punctual school attendance and a good education
help them to fulfill their potential and give them the best possible chances in life.
Attendance
At Okehampton Primary School we monitor children’s attendance and liaise with our school Education Welfare Officer.
We work closely with families with low attendance or where non-attendance follows a pattern.
Children who are persistently late or absent soon fall behind with their learning. Children who are absent from school frequently develop large gaps in their learning which will impact on their progress and their ability to meet age related learning expectations.
