At Beechwood, attendance plays an important role for all of our pupils and staff. We aim for all pupils to achieve at least 96% attendance each week.

Throughout the year pupils can achieve different rewards for good attendance.
Here are some of the ways school rewards this:
ATTENDANCE - Every week, during the key stage assemblies, each class finds out what their whole class attendance figure is. The class at the end of a week who achieve the highest attendance percentage will receive a whole class reward to enjoy together.
Pupils who manage 99% or above attendance each term will be invited to a celebration party at the start of the next term to, which we know as a school is very hard to achieve. Their parents will also receive a special recognition letter.
Attendance Thermometer
At the front of school there is an attendance thermometer. Each class has their attendance shown on the thermometer. This is updated weekly.
The school attendance monitors from Year 5 are:
If you have any questions or concerns linked to your child's attendance, please contact Miss Hart or Mrs Major who will be willing to give advice, help and support.
As a school we would like to thank all of our parents and carers for their continued support with ensuring their children attend school each and every day.
Children across the school from reception to year 6 will be taking part in a circus themed day during the Spring tem to celebrate their attendance as being 99% or above during the Autumn term.
