School attendance and absence
Help with getting your child to go to school
If you바카라 사이트™re having trouble getting your child to go to school, the school and local council can help.
The school will discuss attendance problems with you and should agree a plan with you to improve your child바카라 사이트™s attendance.
A lot of local councils have teams that help parents improve their child바카라 사이트™s attendance at school. The council will tell you if they바카라 사이트™re able to help. Forms of help could include:
- support to reduce the burden on children where families are in difficulty (for example if a child is spending a lot of time caring for someone)
- working with families and schools to overcome bullying and other serious problems
- a parenting contract
Parenting contract
This is a voluntary written agreement between you and either the local council or the school바카라 사이트™s governing body. Between you, you agree to find ways to improve your child바카라 사이트™s attendance.
If you refuse to make a contract or you do not stick to it, it can be used as evidence if the local council decides to prosecute you.
