At Heath Mount Primary School we recognise the link between attainment and attendance. We are committed to ensuring the best possible learning outcomes for all of our pupils and as such we seek to ensure our pupils attend school regularly and on time every day.
We recognise and celebrate good attendance for individuals and classes in the following ways:
Pupils with medical conditions who are required to attend hospital appointments with consultants, are reviewed to ensure that any absences due to these appointments do not affect their attendance achievement of 97% and above or 100%.
Pupils who are required to self-isolate due to Covid-19 will be issued with Birmingham City Council’s agreed code which means their attendance rate remains unaffected.
Pupils must attend school every day and on time to be eligible to receive a raffle ticket for the big termly prize draw. The winners will be able to choose from a bike, a scooter or something techie if they wish! Last term, the Autumn 100% raffle draw took place and the winners of the draw received a bike/scooter of their choice. Please click on the pictures to see our fantastic attendance winners and their prizes!
Children on track with 97% attendance or more will also receive a golden ticket invitation to our annual fun day which takes place in the summer term.
In order to ensure that children have a routine, why not download and print a copy of our morning and evening checklists below so that your child is ready for school everyday.
