If your child is not able to attend school for any reason, please contact the school on 01234 352062 by 9.30am to discuss this with a member of our administration team. Emails and messages sent through the My Child at School app are not accepted for reporting school absence and will not be authorised.

Please make medical and other appointments outside of the school day where possible.

OLICAT has a policy of not authorising holidays during term time. Penalty notices are issued where attendance is below national standards or 5 or more days is taken. Applications for leave of absence should be made to the Headteacher in writing. Please ask the school office for advice about this. Further information can be found here
