If you know your child will be late to school please telephone to inform us.
Absence
We encourage families to ensure that their child attends school every day so that they have a love of learning and reach their full potential.
Please read the Attendance and Punctuality section in the Parent Zone as it provides important information on how we monitor attendance at Wessex Gardens Primary and Nursery School, and support families to enable every child to have excellent attendance.
