Attendance aspirations

Excellent attendance at Finch Woods Academy is an essential element in raising attainment, increasing the progress of our students and helping them to fulfil their ambitions and aspirations.

Our whole school target is 95% and we have many pupils who achieve 100% attendance each week.

What does 90% attendance mean?

  • 90% attendance = ½ day missed each week
  • Over one school year this is 4 weeks of learning lost
  • Across 5 years at Finch Woods Academy your child would have missed half a year

Best results are always achieved when there is strong collaboration between pupils, staff and parents. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support in helping to ensure your child achieves well through consistent high levels of attendance.
