At Reddish Hall, we are committed to meeting our obligation with regards to school attendance through our whole-school culture and ethos that values good attendance. This includes:
- Promoting attendance
- Reducing absence, including severe and persistent absence
- Ensuring every pupil has access to the full-time education to which they are entitled.
- Acting early to address patterns of absence.
- Building strong relationships with families to ensure pupils have the support in place to attend school.
Where attendance begins to decline, we will do our utmost to work with our young people and their families to remove barriers to education.
