Les Quennevais School 2016-2017 absentee figures

Please note that data in Column B, 'Number of pupil sessions', represents the number of pupils on roll in the school multiplied by the number of sessions. Each school day is split into two sessions (morning and afternoon) and registers are taken at both sessions. Therefore, the absences are also marked for the morning and afternoon sessions so the number of absences in Column C reflects this.

Higher rates of absences in the summer term will also reflect that fact that Year 11 are on study leave which is recorded as an authorised absence.

Please also note that the absence figures will include illness, holidays, medical appointments and unauthorised absences.
