Attendance

We expect all children on roll to attend every day, when the school is in session, as long as they are fit and healthy enough to do so. We do all we can to encourage the children to attend, and to put in place appropriate procedures. We believe that the most important factor in promoting good attendance is development of positive attitudes towards school. To this end, we strive to make our school a happy and rewarding experience for all children. We will reward those children whose attendance is very good. We will also make the best provision we can for those children who, for whatever reason, are prevented from coming to school.

Absence from School 

If your child is unable to attend school, please inform the school office as soon as possible by telephone (01623 401404), email (office@lakeview.notts.sch.uk) or through your messaging the school office team on Class Dojo.

If you are unsure whether to send your child to school because of health reasons, please follow the link below to the latest government health advice for schools.
