Absence

In the event of absence, please let the school know by phoning on the first day of absence and in writing when your child returns to school. We do have an answer-phone so messages can be left at any time on 01732 355577. Alternatively, we can be faxed on 01732 355147 or emailed at office@woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk. Notification of absence is most important and we ask that you comply with this request at all times.

If your child is absent and we have not received an explanation, we will attempt to contact you. If we do not receive a reason for absence within 14 days, the absence will be recorded as ‘unauthorised’. Unauthorised absence for the academic year 2007-08 was 0.1%.

Please ensure ALL contact details are up to date so we can contact you immediately should there be an emergency.

Term time Holidays

Parents are asked to avoid taking holidays during term time. However, on application by the parent, unavoidable leave of absence may be granted by the Headteacher. Advanced approval must be obtained and parents are asked to comply with this request. Absence forms can be found in the entrance foyer – these need completing 14 days prior to the absence period. Please note that no more than 10 days leave of absence can be authorised in any school year.
