    • Notifying School of Pupil Absences

      Published 13/01/26, by Susan Braidley

      Notifying School of Pupil Absences

      We would like to remind parents and carers of the importance of informing the school promptly if your child is going to be absent.

      If your child is unable to attend school, please notify the school by 8:30am on the first day of absence, ideally via our usual reporting method (email attendance@danebury.hispmat.org or submit on Arbor). This helps us ensure the safety of all pupils and maintain accurate attendance records.

      If your child has a medical appointment during the school day, parents and carers are required to provide proof of the appointment, such as an appointment letter, text message, or screenshot. This enables the absence to be recorded correctly.

      Good attendance plays a vital role in supporting pupils’ learning, wellbeing, and progress, and we appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain high attendance standards across the school.

      Thank you for your continued support.
