What happens if my child is off sick; how do they know if there is classwork or homework that they need to catch up on before the next subject lesson?
If your child is off sick please phone the main school number and leave a message stating their name, year and tutor group. Upon their return we place the responsibility on the student to find out about missed lessons. This can be done by talking to fellow students from their classes (their tutor can help with some of this during tutor time), visiting the subject area during break or lunch to see the member of staff or sending an email to the teacher. As a parent you can supply a note which they can show to staff detailing the absence and that work set will be caught up on within a reasonable time. If an absence is for more than a few days please contact the tutor to discuss how catching up can be organised.
