Gates are open from 15.00 for you to collect your children and parents/carers who are collecting their children should wait on the playground outside the classroom. Only children travelling by bus or taxi leave by the front entrance; they are escorted by staff to their transport. The LA provides transport for pupils living in Caerwent and surrounding areas. All enquiries about this should be directed to the Student and School Access Unit, Innovation House, Magor (Telephone 01633 – 644644) and not to school.

 

If a child has to leave during school hours, please ensure the class teacher is informed. No child will be allowed to leave unaccompanied. The School Office must also be informed.

Please notify the school by telephone or in writing on the first day of your child’s absence. Some absences are considered authorised and it is always in your child’s interests for the school to be informed as to why they are absent. Unauthorised absences will be pursued. Attendances are regularly checked by the Education Welfare Officer (EWO), who can take further action if deemed appropriate.
