At Highwood Primary School, we believe that every child deserves the best start in life and that starts with being in school every day.
We take a positive, supportive approach to attendance, celebrating both individual and class achievements. Our aim is to make every child feel:
- safe
- included
- happy to come to school
Excellent attendance at school is important to allow a child or young person to fulfil their potential.
Below are just some of the key reasons why it is so important children attend school:
- To learn the Highwood Golden Rules.
- To learn and have fun.
- To make new friends.
- To experience new things in life like joining a club.
- To learn British Values
- To develop awareness of other cultures, religion, ethnicity and gender differences.
- To achieve and gain qualifications.
- To develop new skills.
- To be the best version of themselves that they can be.
