Feeling unwell? If you are going to be absent, you must call the Attendance Phoneline between 8.00am and 9.30am each day; and no later than 30 minutes before your first timetabled lesson begins. If you haven't called by 9.30am, you will need to call the main reception line.
When you call the Attendance Phoneline, make sure you give your full name, student number and reason for absence.
A parent/carer can only call on your behalf in exceptional circumstances e.g. you are too unwell to call.
The staff member will confirm with you what lessons you are missing and remind you that you will need to call in on each day of your absence.

Students and Apprentices who have not informed us via the Attendance Phoneline and who have not turned up for lessons, their parent/carer/employer will receive a phone call for each day they are absent from their progress coach or assessor.
Students and Apprentices who have informed us via the Attendance Phoneline that they will be absent, their parent/carer/employer will receive a text message for each day absent.
Attendance is the baseline measure to safeguard our learners. Our priority is the wellbeing of our students and apprentices. Therefore, we must know where they are. If a member of staff or employer has not spoken to a student or apprentice in any one timetabled week, the College, as a duty of care may contact the appropriate external agencies.
