| Education Attendance Service (EAS) |
| Parents and carers of children of school age (5-16 years) are responsible for making sure that their child receives an appropriate education. The Education Attendance Service helps with problems relating to a child’s attendance at school and can advise on a range of issues relating to particular educational needs or difficulties. |
The school may refer your child to the EAS if
their attendance is poor or if the school is aware
of any problems or difficulties, which affect
their attendance.
The school will contact you first to try to resolve
these difficulties before referring your child to
the EAS. The School Attendance Officer (SAO)
helps to resolve any difficulties, and advises and
informs parents of the legal responsibilities of
everyone involved. You are welcome to contact
the SAO if you have any concerns about your
child’s attendance on 020 8820 7288 or go direct
to the school.
