Attendance Guideline

Please see below our updated SBW Attendance Guideline. This guideline has been developed based on CET's Attendance Policy. Key takeaways from this guideline are:

  • The Principal is unable to formally approve any unauthorised absences, noting that family holidays during school term times constitutes an unauthorised absence.
  • The parent/carers and independent students must inform the school of any absence and the reason for this absence by 9.45 each day. This notification may be made via:
  • Compass
  • Phone on (03) 64 422167
    • Email at stbrigidsw@catholic.tas.edu.au
    • If a student arrives late to school, they must be accompanied by their parent/carer to the office to sign in before proceeding to class. If a student is absent and no notification has been received by 9.45 am the parent will receive a text message or phone call from the school notifying them of the unexplained absence and requesting that a reason is provided.
