St Edmund’s received the FFT National Attendance Award for the Spring Term. High attendance is indeed crucial for a student’s overall achievement, well-being, and development.
The Department for Education recognises the significance of regular school attendance in helping students succeed academically. Consistently attending school allows students to actively participate in classroom learning, engage with teachers and peers, and access important educational resources and support. It also provides a structured environment that fosters social and emotional growth, helping students develop important life skills.
Moreover, research has shown a positive correlation between high attendance rates and improved academic outcomes. Students who consistently attend school tend to perform better in their GCSE and A Level examinations.
By consistently achieving high attendance rates, St Edmund’s is providing its students with an invaluable opportunity to maximise their potential. It reflects the dedication of the school, students, parents, and staff in prioritising education and creating an environment conducive to learning.
We would like to thank all our parents and carers for their support and commitment as we continue to support our students towards further success.
