Attendance is not optional - It is the difference between falling behind and moving ahead.
When students miss school, they do not just miss lessons - they miss learning. Even a few days off quickly add up, and the impact is real:
📉 Students with poor attendance are far more likely to drop a grade - or several at GCSE and Sixth Form.
📈 Students who attend regularly achieve higher results, stronger progress and leave with more choices for their future.
👨👩👧 Parents & Carers: Every absence matters. Strong attendance now protects your child’s long term success - their grades, their confidence and their future pathways.
🎒 Students: Your future is being built right now. Every lesson you attend moves you closer to your goals. Every lesson you miss puts obstacles in your way.
Show up. Stay focused. Protect your chances.
Excellent attendance is the expectation, not the exception.
Your grades. Your future. Your move.

Well done to our Year 9 football team!
Yesterday, the Year 9 team, supported by a few Year 8 players, took part in the Plate Cup semi final as they aimed to defend the title they won last year.
It was a highly competitive match, with the team creating several good chances in the first half. Their determination paid off in the second half when a free kick from just outside the box was finished superbly into the top left corner, securing a hard‑fought 1–0 victory against Oaks Park.
Congratulations to Sajad for scoring the winning goal, and to Lucas and Iyaaz, who were named Players of the Match.@Caterham.High.School
