Attendance Expectations 

Evergreen's individual target for attendance is 100% Government minimum expectations for attendance is 95%.  

The school expects all our pupils to attend, on time, and all day every day, achieving 100% attendance. Should you child’s attendance drop to 95% attendance in one school year your child will miss 9 school days and at least 45 hours worth of lessons. Recent research shows there is a positive correlation between attendance and achievement so 95% equates to dropping at least half a grade. 90% attendance equates to 19 days lost, at least 95 hours worth of lessons and a drop by at least one whole grade.  

Please keep checking regularly on Class charts on which their current attendance is shown . If your child has medical appointments try, whenever possible to attend mid morning clinics so your child can attend the am reg and then return to school and gain their afternoon mark, therefore not affecting their attendance.
