Reporting your child’s absence
We understand that absence due to ill health can be unavoidable. If your child is going to be absent please:
Contact the Academy by 8.30 am via email at office@futures-aspirations.org, or by phone (Attendance office: 01295 257942), with the following details:
- Your child’s full name
- Your child’s form group
- Reason for absence
- Anticipated length of absence
Please email on each day of your child’s absence.
If we do not hear from you and your child does not arrive, our Attendance Officer will contact you.
Medical Appointments
If your child has a medical appointment coming up please notify us in advance and provide us with a copy of the appointment letter or card.
Punctuality
Every day counts but every MINUTE is important!
Each child arriving late causes disruption to the rest of their learning group
Lost minutes = Lost learning
Over an academic year, 5 minutes late each day equates to 3 days lost!
10 minutes late each day equates to 6.5 days lost!
Please refer to our Attendance Policy for more information.
