Did you know that the higher attendance at school your child has is on average associated with higher achievement?
Attendance is important. Every day counts!
As an example, if a student misses one day a fortnight of school, over 13 years of schooling, that equates to 1.5 years! That is the equivalent of only finishing to Year 11.
