I've just started a fight with the HT about their promotion of some home study company.
Straight back comes an email defending her position to the hilt, then going on to say:
'On a different matter, we have just completed our statutory attendance
monitorng and I would like to meet with you to discuss some concerns I
have regarding Ds1's attendance. I would be grateful if you could pop
into the school office and make an appointment to meet with me some next
next week.'
I'm by this as he has had a few days off for illness but there are other families taking their kids to other countries, dancing on fricking ice, all during term time, openly and without authorisation.
Is she just trying to put the frighteners on me or is there anything she can throw at me? We lost a school place last year because they bullied me into withdrawing him as he was doing part time and they didn't like it. I didn't know then that I could have fought for the place rather than just got our coats, as it were, and now I am having flashbacks and am terrified it'll happen again.
Thanks if anyone has any insight into attendance requirements...I thought you just kept them off if they were poorly, silly me I suppose
