Gilbert Colvin Primary School
Attendance
Regular school attendance is vital. We encourage excellent attendance from every pupil and work with families to remove any barriers to attendance.
Pupils in Reception should arrive at 9am.
For pupils in years 1-6 the main gate opens at 8.45am and the children need to be in the classroom and registered by 9am. Children arriving after 9am will need to be signed in at the office by their parent.
Home times are as follows:
Nursery - 3.15
Reception - 3.10
Year 1 - 6 - 3.25
Holidays are not authorised in term time and unauthorised absence may result in a penalty notice being issued.
Our education welfare service, EWASS, work proactively with families in securing regular school attendance and good punctuality.
