Good attendance and punctuality are vital for your child’s success at school and will help to establish positive life habits necessary for their future success.
Herefordshire Council is responsible, by law, for making sure that pupils of compulsory school age attend their school regularly.
St James CE Primary School works very closely with the Education Welfare Service in
regularly monitoring attendance and punctuality. Our School Attendance Policy includes statutory legislation from the DCSF and we work hard to implement and support this.
Please could we remind Parents/Carers that the school bell is rung at 8.55am. Your
child/children should be present in the playground, ready to come into school, when the bell rings and registration begins. Regular lateness can be very unsettling for children.
However, if you are unavoidably late bringing your child/children to school, please ensure they are signed in at the office.
The end of our School day is 3.30pm and we would expect Parents/Carers to be on time to collect their child/children, it is very distressing for children when they are late being collected.
Thank you for your support and cooperation in helping us to ensure your child’s school experience is positive, rewarding and caring.

If you wish to order a vegetarian meal, this also should be clearly marked on the envelope.

19th April, 2010. The increase is in line with the price set by the Local Authority for Free School Meals.
