Attendance – The 100 Club Explained!

Every School Day Counts at Broombridge and we firmly believe that every child who can be at school should be at school. Similarly to other schools across the country, our attendance figures are much lower than pre-pandemic levels. This is largely due to the important messages from health authorities regarding contagious symptoms and we are truly grateful to our parents and carers for following that advice where necessary. We also want to recognise those students who have exemplary attendance, coming to school every day they can and making the most of their time at school. To acknowledge this we have set up the 100 Club, where students who are present for 100% of a time period (e.g. a specific month, a term or a half term) will be given an attendance certificate and invited to a small event at the end of the year. This system will ensure that students who do the right thing and stay at home when they are sick, but otherwise attend school every day will have their amazing attendance acknowledged throughout the year.
