I attended my dd reception talk yesterday and of course attendance came up. The government have now changed the attendance guidelines so now you have to achieve 90% attendance which equates to 2 and a half days off between September and December. They've also included children of not school age in this so 4 year olds. If you have more than 2 and half days off you're treated as a persistent offender and have to meet with the educational welfare officer. Is this totally ridiculous or is it just me. Bareing in mind you have to keep your child off for 48hours if they have a sickness bug!
