Good school attendance is imperative if pupils are to make the progress which they have the potential for. At Hart Memorial, attendance is monitored by our Vice-Principal, Mrs White, in collaboration with the Education Welfare Service.
If your child is off, you MUST provide us with a reason why - as a school, we have a duty to know reasons for absence and monitor these.
Your pupil must only be off for a valid reason - sickness, appointment, something agreed with Principal/ Vice-Principal etc.
When monitoring attendance, the following flowcharts come into play. Please read them carefully to understand your role alongside the role of school staff.
Thank you.

✨ A Wonderful Moment for Our School Community! ✨
Yesterday, we were delighted to present a cheque for £195 to our Charity of the Year – Children’s Kidney Fund NI. This fantastic total was raised during our Christmas Party/Disco Day, and we couldn’t be more thankful! 🎄💃🕺
Our School Council chose this charity because of its special significance within our school community. In the past year, one of our own pupils benefited from a successful kidney transplant, making this cause especially meaningful and close to our hearts. ❤️
We have pledged to continue supporting Children’s Kidney Fund NI throughout the year, and we look forward to making an even greater impact together.
Thank you to everyone who contributed — your kindness truly makes a difference! 🌟🙌
