Attendance at Our School: Celebrating Excellence
At our school, we believe that outstanding attendance is the foundation for success. Every day in school is an opportunity—to learn, to grow, and to be part of a vibrant and supportive community. We are incredibly proud of our students, families, and staff for the commitment they show in making excellent attendance a shared priority.
National Recognition for Outstanding Attendance
We are delighted to share that in the 2024–2025 academic year, our school received a national FFT Attendance Award, placing us in the top 10% of all FFT secondary schools across the country. This is an exceptional achievement and reflects the dedication of our whole school community.

Even more impressively, we have continued this positive trajectory. For the Autumn Term of the current academic year, we have once again been recognised with the same national award—confirming that our strong attendance is not only sustained but continues to be among the very best nationally.

Why Attendance Matters
Good attendance is directly linked to:
- Strong academic progress
- Positive wellbeing and social development
- Greater confidence, resilience, and life chances
Every lesson matters, every day matters—and our students consistently rise to this challenge.
A Shared Success
These awards celebrate not just attendance figures, but the commitment, partnership, and culture that make them possible. We extend our thanks to:
- Our students, who show ambition and pride through their consistent attendance
- Our families, whose support ensures students arrive ready to learn
- Our staff, who create a welcoming, engaging, and inclusive environment every day
Together, we continue to build a school community where attendance is valued, success is nurtured, and excellence is recognised.
Looking Ahead
We remain determined to maintain and further improve our attendance achievements throughout the year. With the continued support of our families and community, we are confident that our school will remain among the top-attending schools nationally.
