PARENTS / CARERS

Parents and Carers have a legal responsibility to ensure that a child attends school and that the school is notified immediately of any absence. 

• Parents and Carers should contact the Pupil Absence Reporting Line on 0141 287 0039, as early as possible on morning of pupils’ absence. 
• Alternatively, Parents / Carers can use these additional communication methods:

• MYGOVSCOT portal to access their ‘myaccount’ and complete the online form to alert us of their child’s absence. 
• Email – Parents / Carers can email the pupils identified PTPC to alert them about absences.

• If the absence relates to reasons of personal or sensitive nature, serious illness or contagious diseases which will last more than a week, injuries e.g. broken limbs, then these cases should be reported directly to the school on 0141 582 0170.
• Parents and Carers should keep the school up to date with changes to their personal mobile phone.
