St Augustine's Catholic Primary School

Absences - Letting the School Know

It is important to inform the school if your child is going to be absent. Please telephone the school office on 01992 463549 before 9:00am and leave a message advising of your child's name, class and reason for absence.  Please remember to phone each morning your child is off. If you have not called, you will receive a follow up text or phone call.  Please reply to this.  On return to school a letter of explanation should be provided addressed to the Headteacher.  In the case of children with vomiting and diarrhoea, we require 2 clear days of absence from the last bout of illness before your child can return to school. For further information please refer to the school Attendance Policy under the 'Statutory Policies' tab on this website.
