Absence and Illness
Absence due to illness
If your child is unwell and unable to attend school we ask that you contact the school on the first day of absence before 9.00 am. The school has an answer phone available to leave a message if nobody is available to take your call, or you may call into school personally and speak to the office staff or email at office@bhcps.efspt.org.
Contact the school on every further day of absence, again before 9.00 am Ensure that your child returns to school as soon as possible and you provide any medical evidence, if requested, to support the absence.
Other Absences
Please complete the Leave of Absence Form attached and hand in to the school office.
Please be aware that removing your child from school will be classed as an unauthorised absence from education.
Please refer to our Attendance Policy for further information.
