Attendance at The Holy Family School
‍

There is a direct correlation between attendance at school and academic and social outcomes for children. Children need to be in school to learn. We understand that all children are ill at times throughout the school year and some absences are unavoidable. Please try to arrange routine medial appointments for outside school hours. Holiday requests made during term time will not be authorised by the Head Teacher.

This mission forms the basis for our values of Trust, Honesty, Sharing, Acceptance and Family. The school values its strong links with the parishes it serves, Welwyn Garden City parishes and St Thomas More, through school families, Parish Priest, staff and governors.

Notification of absence

Please notify the school via phone call as far in advance as possible, but no later than 9.30am, if your child is absent from school.
