The DRET Attendance Policy was updated for the academic year 2022/23 to take into account the changes required by the current DfE Attendance Guidance. There are no changes to this version but the contextual appendix will need updating and publishing to the academy website for the start of each academic year.
You can access the updated and approved DRET attendance policy in an editable Word format below (although you should not need to edit the main policy, only the contextual appendix). Once you have completed the contextual appendix for your academy, please save in PDF format and then add to both the policies page and the attendance page on your website or email to Victoria Linthwaite who can assist you with this.
PLEASE REMEMBER: Writing the policy is not the important bit, actually ensuring that you do what it says in the policy is!
