At Bay Primary School we recognise the importance that good attendance and punctuality have in ensuring that children are able to make good academic progress, have good mental well-being, health and happiness. We want every child to strive towards excellent attendance and work hard with pupils, parents and carers to make individual attendance as good as it can be.
Attendance is monitored daily by the Attendance Administration Officer who acts swiftly when attendance becomes a concern.
