Highfield Junior School

Extended Absences

Tuesday, November 09, 2021 02:03 PM

Many of our families take extended trips for business and family reasons.

Please connect with the office if you know that you child will be absent for more than 15 school days.

We are required to demit students who are absent for longer than 15 days. This means that you may need to register your child again when you return provided you still reside at an address within the established boundaries of the school.

If this happens, we will endeavour to place your child back in the same class, but given the various considerations and changes during your extended absence (class size, boy-girl ratio, new students arriving, students leaving, etc.), we are not able to guarantee a spot in the same class.
