Attendance: Every Lesson Counts

Attendance: Every Lesson Counts

At Shooters Hill Sixth Form College, we know that success is built day by day, lesson by lesson. Strong attendance is one of the most important factors in ensuring students achieve their full potential.

Regular attendance makes the difference between:

• Achieving qualifications

• Securing vital Maths and English grades

• Progressing confidently onto chosen next steps, including university, apprenticeships or employment

• Missing valuable opportunities

Each lesson delivers essential knowledge and skills that build momentum over time. When students are present and engaged, they strengthen their understanding, grow in confidence, and stay on track to meet their goals.

A Partnership with Parents and Carers

We recognise that success is a shared effort. The encouragement and support students receive at home plays a crucial role in maintaining strong attendance and positive study habits.

By ensuring students arrive on time, attend every lesson, and remain focused on their learning, parents and carers help open doors to future opportunities.

Finishing Strong

As we move through the academic year, every session counts more than ever. Consistent attendance ensures students remain fully prepared for assessments, coursework deadlines, and progression plans.

Together, we can support our students to:

• Be present

• Stay focused

• Finish strong

Thank you for your continued partnership and commitment to student success.
