Attendance at Nursery School is very important to us and at Woodfield, attendance is a priority. 

We will do everything we can to support you to ensure your child attends Nursery every day.

At times, all children will be poorly and will need to stay at home. As stated in our attendance policy, we ask that you contact school if your child is not coming in. If you do not contact the school, we will contact you to find out why your child is not in school.

How to notify school of absences

Please will you phone us on the first day that your child is going to be absent.

 If you have any particular difficulties which may affect your child’s attendance,  please let your key person know and we will try to help.

Children miss many things if they do not come to school or arrive late. So that your child can make the most progress, please get them to school every day on time. We open at 8:40am and 12:30pm. 

Extended holidays

As a school we encourage you not to take holidays in school term time wherever possible as this will affect your child's education.

However, if this unavoidable, please inform us as soon as possible and discuss your individual circumstances with us. If you are planning an extended holiday  we will need to know your holiday dates and  the day you will be returning to school.

Please complete the request for Holiday Leave form which can be obtained from the school office.
