Absence Reporting

Attendance Matters…

At King’s Academy Easthampstead Park we strive for 100% attendance but as a minimum we expect 96% attendance in line with the national average.

Our school attendance policy asks that if a student is absent from school, their parent/carer contact school by 9 am with a reason for absence for each day of that absence.

For reporting appointments that your child may have during the school day please email appointments@kgaeasthampstead.uk. We request that you give us as much notice as possible.

For reporting your child’s absence due to illness please either report it through Study Bugs or attendance@kgaeasthampstead.uk.

You can report a your child’s absence due to illness by registering for Studybugs HERE

We do not expect any parents to request permission for holidays for their children during the school term unless there are exceptional circumstances. Any requests should be submitted to the school at least 15 school days before the holiday dates, using KAEP Leave of Absence Form The final decision rests with the school.

If you have any other concerns or queries regarding attendance please contact our Attendance Officer on 01344 390824 or by emailing at attendance@kgaeasthampstead.uk

Our Parental Engagement Champion, Miss Kirstie Rennie can be contacted on 01344 390806 or by emailing him at kirstie.rennie@kgaeasthampstead.uk

Medical and dental appointments should not be made during the school day unless absolutely necessary, in which case these can also be logged on Studybugs. In addition, students must sign in and out at welfare.
