Education attendance: information for schools

You can find more information for schools on our West Berkshire School Services website (SLA Online).

Schools have a responsibility to:

• maintain accurate attendance registers
• use the correct national attendance codes
• identify and support pupils with poor attendance

You can find information about the referral process for training and support for staff here.
 

Call your designated Education Attendance Officer for any advice/guidance.
