Absence

It is a rule of this school that a leave of absence shall not be granted in term time unless there are reasons considered to be exceptional by the Headteacher, irrespective of the child’s overall attendance. 

Only the Headteacher or his/her designate, may authorise such a request and all applications for a leave of absence must be made in advance using the online absence request form.  

Parents and carers are required to complete this form at least 4 weeks before the proposed dates of absence.  

For all absences, including sickness and medical appointments, on each day of absence the parent or carer must contact the school office by 9.15am advising the school of their child’s absence.

Full details about attendance and absence can be found in the Kyson Attendance Policy.
