Attendance

In order to achieve our curriculum intent and deliver high quality provision we recognise that high levels of attendance are essential for students to get the most out of their college experience, including their attainment, wellbeing, and wider life chances. This has never been more important than since the pandemic which has seen significant disruption to students’ education.

We expect all students and staff to understand the possible consequences of failure to adhere to the College Student Standards. All students dropping below a 95% threshold will trigger attendance interventions which may include disciplinary sanctions.
