Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Primary School has high expectations when it comes to childrens attendance in school as we believe being in school provides children with the very best opportunity to be the best they can be.
We aim to encourage all children to achieve the best possible levels of attendance in order to take full advantage of the learning experiences available to them. The school will offer an environment in which children feel welcomed and valued. Our children are aware that their presence in school is important and they will be missed if they are absent or late.
Good attendance is vital for pupils to achieve their full educational potential.

Please can we all be mindful of our local residents, when parking to collect or drop off your children (even if it is for just a minute or your not leaving the vehicle) can you NOT park over driveways. This also includes the shared drive/road that goes along the side of our school to the overflow carpark and health centre, we ask you to NOT park anywhere along there or near the bungalow at the bottom as the emergency services needs 100% access to this at all times of the day, everyday.
Thank you ... See MoreSee Less
