Attendance
Here at LS-TEN, we are aware of the impact attendance has upon academic performance and progress made by learners. We would expect our learners to be punctual and should arrive by 9:00am.
Our Attendance Process
If your child is going to be absent you phone our office (using the number below) before 9:30am.
Failure to inform us will result in a call from one of our education team members.
If the absence is persistent, then a visit will be conducted by a member of the Education Leadership Team to see if any support is needed to help attendance.
What could happen if your child’s attendance is poor?
If your child’s attendance is consistently below the expected level, you will receive a letter, raising our concerns.
If your child’s attendance continues to reduce and be below the expected level, you may be required to attend an attendance meeting regarding our concerns.
After a meeting has taken place, your child would be internally monitored for a period of 4 weeks. We would want to see an improvement in attendance within this time frame
If attendance continues to decline following the meeting, schools may wish to forward the case to authorities for a possible prosecution.
