Attendance to school is vital in order that pupils make the progress of which they are capable. As a school, we have a minimum target of 97% attendance for all pupils with the aspiration that they should be in school 100% of the time. We work with Attend a service which helps us to monitor and promote attendance at Parkside, please see below a letter to explain their services.
