Attendance

Every day at school matters. At Takeley, we are passionate about ensuring every child receives an excellent, full-time education, and consistent attendance is vital to their academic success, social development and emotional well-being.

Why Attendance Matters

Research shows that attendance has a significant impact on attainment and progress. Missing school doesn't just mean missing lessons – it means missing out on learning that builds the foundation for future success.

When children are in school, they thrive. They build friendships, develop confidence and gain the knowledge and skills they need to reach their full potential.

Our Commitment

We set high expectations for attendance and punctuality for all our pupils, and we work closely with families to remove any barriers to attendance. This commitment sits at the heart of our school's vision and values.
