At Filton Hill, we understand the importance of having good attendance in school. When learners have time off, they miss out on learning, exciting opportunities and social interactions with their friends. Our school target for attendance is 95%. If your child's attendance is less than that, we will reach out to provide support. 

If you are worried about your child’s attendance, we are here to help. Talking to us early means we can work together to understand what’s going on and help reduce any time your child misses from school. 

We understand that, for some children, coming to school and managing daily routines can be challenging. You are not alone and we are here to help. Miss Greenslade is our attendance lead and she is more than happy to arrange a meeting to listen, explore any barriers to attendance with you and work alongside you to find practical ways forward. 

Together, we will agree on a clear plan of support and arrange regular check‑ins to review how things are going. Depending on your child’s needs, this may involve a School Attendance Meeting, a medical support plan, an individual health care plan, an Early Help plan, or a attendance meetings. 

Our aim is always the same: to support your child’s wellbeing, learning, and success by helping them attend school with confidence.
