We have a zero tolerance to bullying at Palterton Primary School, and we investigate all allegations of bullying. This policy defines what behaviours constitute bullying, and what happens when bullying occurs. Child friendly version
Palterton Primary School believes that good attendance is essential if pupils are to take full advantage of school and gain the appropriate skills which will equip them for life. We aim to achieve good attendance by operating an attendance policy within which staff, pupils, parents, local community and the Education Social Work Service can work in partnership. The school will monitor attendance and ensure quick and early intervention if a problem is identified.
