Attendance Management Plan

For an individual student, regular attendance is quantified as attending 90% of the term, or less than 5 days absent. The Government’s target for school wide attendance is for 80% of students to attend regularly by the year 2030. 

St Mary's Catholic School implements a stepped attendance response plan, launched Term One 2026, to ensure a timely response to all absences, as well as effective tracking and escalated response in cases of concerning attendance.
