See how good attendance is recognised in our school in the Achievement Section.
Every half-day absence from school has to be recorded by staff at the school as either AUTHORISED or UNAUTHORISED. This is why information about the cause of each absence is always required, by telephone on 01270 871107 or email: absence@alsagerschool.org by 9am on each day of absence.
Authorised absences are mornings or afternoons away from school for a good reason like illness or other unavoidable causes. The school will determine whether an absence is to be unauthorised or not. Unauthorised absences are an offence by the parent under section 7 of the 1996 Education Act. These may include:
Attendance at Alsager School has been well above the National Average since 2013
It is our objective to ensure that our students are successful and a key element of this is good attendance.

An attendance figure of 90% means a student will have missed 4 weeks of lessons.
Parents are kept regularly informed of their children’s attendance via termly reports sent home. At Alsager we celebrate and reward our students attendance in a number of ways, including awarding golden lapel stars for 100% attendance termly as well as for the whole school year, the Golden Ticket half termly prize draw and celebrating students who have the top BFL grades with no absence on a four weekly basis.
Visit our Achievement Section and Behaviour for Learning Section for further details of how we reward our students.
