It is very important for your children to get into regular routines with regard to daily attendance. Lateness or noticeably irregular attendance jeopardizes a child’s learning opportunities. This may stop them from being considered for programmes such as Reading Recovery, which stipulates that a child must have a good rate of attendance for daily progress to be made.
