Overview
A good education gives your child the best possible start in life. That's why it's so important for them to attend school regularly.
Poor school attendance damages educational achievement and the future progress of young people. When children miss school, they fall behind in their studies and may have difficulty keeping up with their classmates. This can also lead to negative social and emotional consequences, such as bullying and isolation.
Promoting and supporting good school attendance is essential to learning and attainment. At Knowsley Council, we are committed to helping all children reach their full potential. We work with schools to identify and address the barriers to school attendance, and we provide support to families to help their children attend school regularly.
