Dear Parents/Carers,
Well Done Everybody for Improved Attendance!
Our recent census showed some very positive news about improvements in attendance over time. Over the last 4 years attendance has improved each year from 94.3% to 95.7%. This may not seem like a big difference, but the improvement of 1.4% means:
- Our overall attendance is now in line with national figures for primary schools.
- Attendance is now above Bristol overall attendance.
- Overall children are in school an incredible 545 extra days extra across the year compared to 4 years ago.
- This is the same as an average of 2 ½ days of school per child compared to 4 year ago.
WELL DONE EVERYONE!
Also well done to the following class who had attendance at over 97%:
- Year 2 = 99%
This means that Year 2 will have non-uniform on Friday 7th June.
Job Vacancy
We have a vacancy for a school cleaner to start on the 15th July 2019. If you would like to apply please speak to the School Office.
