Attendance at St. Nicholas Primary School
We would like to celebrate with you the wonderful improvement in attendance this year. Our attendance is now in line with the National Average. This is a massive achievement. Thank you so much
Thank you also for helping us to reduce our lateness figures. Being on time is so vital because arriving late at school can be very disruptive for your child, the teacher, and the other children in the class.
End of year certificates, trophies and gift vouchers are awarded to pupils for 100% attendance.
