Attendance
Good attendance and punctuality are paramount to our pupils' success.
At St Anthony's, we want pupils to receive a full-time education that ultimately supports each pupil to thrive. Our school is a welcoming, caring place, whereby each member of the school community feels safety and belonging. All school staff will work with pupils and their families to ensure each pupil is here everyday, ready to learn, on time. We have exciting rewards and incentives for individuals and classes who have the highest attendance record over the week or have worked hard to improve their attendance and/or punctuality.
On this page, you will find further information around Attendance to support you.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the school on 01482 850286.
