We want all young people in our school to become:
![Page 8: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Attendance
A student has 90% attendance.
Is that good?
90% attendance sounds good, but it means that your child misses on average:
One half day every week! 4 whole weeks per year!!
1/2 a school year over 5 years!!!
![Page 9: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Attendance – Percentages can be misleading
100% 0 days missed Excellent
95% 9 days of absence: Satisfactory
1 week and 4 days of learning missed
90% 19 days of absence: Poor
3 weeks and 4 days of learning missed
85% 28 days of absence: Very Poor
5 weeks and 3 days of learning missed
80% 38 days of absence: Unacceptable
7 weeks and 3 days of learning missed
75% 46 days of absence: Unacceptable
9 weeks and 1 day of learning missed
![Page 10: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Good attendance also shows future employers that a
young person is reliable, more likely to achieve well and
play a positive role in their community.
At Rainey Endowed, students who have an attendance
rate of 95% or above have been proven to outperform
those students with attendance of 90% or lower.
Research suggests that 17 missed school days per year
= a drop of one grade at GCSE!

Attendance – How parents can help
• Contact us as soon as possible to tell us why your child is absent, and when you expect them to return. Putting the school number in your phone can save you time.
• Only allow your child to be absent from school for a genuine reason.
• Always inform the school if your child is absent due to illness and follow this up with a written note when your child returns to school.
• Arrange dental and medical appointments outside school hours when possible.
![Page 12: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Attendance – How parents can help
• Take family holidays outside school term-time. Holidays taken during school term are classed as unauthorised absences.
• Help your child to prepare for each school day by ensuring they are organized the night before e.g. uniform, PE kit, homework, class materials.
• Establish a good morning routine to ensure your child has adequate time for breakfast and travel to school.
• Take truancy seriously.If your child is not at school, who are they with? What are they doing?

Target Setting so far.
In all subjects and classes the teachers have had or will have a one-on-one discussion with each pupil, helping them to decide on a realistic target grade for each subject. This grade will be based on assessments that were completed last year, their Year 11 Summer examination grade and their potential within that particular subject. This grade will be agreed between teacher and pupil.
![Page 65: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
This Afternoon
You as parents or guardians have the opportunity to contribute to this process by discussing each subject grade with your son/daughter and coming to agreement with them. The grade will then be recorded in school on Monday.

Good Practice is essential
Fitness is not a spectator sport, nor can you get some magic prescription to get you fit
Learning is exactly the same!
![Page 75: Rainey Endowed Year 12 Raising Achievement Information Eveningraineyendowed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Yr12... · 2017-10-23 · Year 12 Raising Achievement Evening Tu e sday](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060322/5f0d6da87e708231d43a4ebb/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Good practice encourages active learning.
Learning is also not a spectator sport. You learn as you
• talk about what you are learning,
• write about it and
• participate in class
