Special Leave of Absence Request Form
While at Henry Cavendish we strive for 100% attendance from every child, we also appreciate that at times there may be exceptional or unavoidable circumstances for which you need to remove your child from school. Maintaining open communication about such absences is key to ensuring that class teachers – and other members of staff within the school – can support your child with their academic and emotional (where appropriate) requirements. Therefore we ask that if you need to take your child out of school for personal or unavoidable reasons, you must complete a Special Leave of Absence Form and return it to Mr Apsley via office@henrycavendish.co.uk. Mr Apsley will then authorise your request if appropriate.
