We fully appreciate that there are times when unforeseen circumstances mean that children arrive late, it happens to us all, however, as we are again at the start of a new academic year, it is an appropriate time to remind parents and carers of the importance of ensuring that your child arrives at school on time. The tables and graphs below explain why this is so important. Being late adds up to lost learning time, with just 5 minutes lost a day adding up to over 3 days of learning lost each year.
