Is Your Child at School Today?

School Attendance Information for Parents/Guardians

Introduction

To provide full-time education for your child, give them the best possible start in life. As a parent, you should also make sure that your child is punctual and attends school regularly to make the most of the opportunities available for them. The law says that parents must ensure that their child regularly attends the school where he/she is registered.

What you can do to help

Make sure your child goes to school on time. This encourages the habit of timekeeping and reduces any possible classroom disruption. If your child arrives after the register has closed without a good reason, this will be recorded as an ‘unauthorized’ absence for that session.
If your child has to miss school, you must let the school know why, preferably on the first morning of the absence. (Your child’s school will have an attendance policy explaining how this should be done.)
If you think that your child is having difficulties in attending school you should contact the school. It is better to do this at the earliest, as most problems can be dealt with quickly.

Authorized and Unauthorized Absence

If your child is absent and the school does not receive an explanation from you or considers the explanation unsatisfactory, it will record your child’s absence as ‘unauthorized’, that is, as truancy.

Your child’s school will authorize most absences for acceptable reasons such as:

Sickness
Unavoidable medical or dental appointments (if possible, arrange these after school or during school holidays)
An interview with a prospective employer or college
Exceptional family circumstances, such as bereavement
Days of religious observance.

Your child’s school will not authorize absence for the following reasons:

Shopping during school hours
Day trips
Holidays which have not been agreed
Birthdays
Looking after brothers or sisters or ill relatives.

Soon after graduating with a Master’s in Literature from Southern Arkansas University, she joined an institute as an English language trainer. She has had innumerous student interactions and has produced a couple of research papers on English language teaching. She soon found that non-native speakers struggled to meet the English language requirements set by foreign universities. It was when she decided to jump ship into IELTS training. From then on, she has been mentoring IELTS aspirants. She joined IELTSMaterial about a year ago, and her contributions have been exceptional. Her essay ideas and vocabulary have taken many students to a band 9.
