Level 3 Accredited Inclusive Attendance CPD is taking shape! Building on Level 1 & 2, this stage deepens strategic thinking, trauma-informed practice & leadership. Designed for those ready to embed real culture change.

Raise awareness. Build an Inclusive Attendance culture. Change lives and communities. Attendance isn’t just a number — it’s a reflection of belonging, safety & connection. Let’s make it everyone’s responsibility. Let’s lead change that lasts. #InclusiveAttendance

Be the staff member who notices. Spot the signs early. Catch the pattern before it becomes the problem. #RelationshipsMatter

“The more you reward someone for doing something, the less likely they are to keep doing it once the rewards stop.” — Alfie Kohn 100% attendance prizes often reward privilege, not perseverance. Let’s shift: 🎯 From competition to connection 🎯 From badges to belonging

“Systems that only reward the ‘best’ can’t claim to be inclusive.” — Carol Dweck CYP don’t attend for rewards — they attend for connection. Belonging, trust, safety, friendship — these are the real pull factors. Recognition should be relational, not performative.

Creating an attendance culture means going beyond the register. ✅ Have you been vigilant this week? ✅ Have you noticed who’s present but not really there? Present in the chair. Absent in the mind. Attendance is more than a tick. Get behind the campaign. #EveryDayCounts

Attendance isn’t just a %. If children don’t understand why it matters, there’ll never be real buy-in. Our EYFS–Post 16 tutor/form time programme includes 15 editable lessons (just 20 mins each) to build understanding, not just track figures. Let’s embed a culture!

The Bullfrogs were learning all about apostrophes for contractions this morning and we all love a video to support us! ✏️📖🎶Allenton Primary

What did you notice today? What will you notice tomorrow? How are you contributing—every day—to an Inclusive Attendance culture? When a child is late, don’t just ask where they were. Ask what held them back. That’s where change begins.

It’s been an exciting day in Year 1! We learned all about England, including different physical and human features as well as trying scones 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Very proud of the amazing work Jellyfish Class did this morning, writing a letter to their new Year 2 teachers ✍️

Creating a culture of vigilance around attendance is no different to safeguarding. Every bag at the gate carries more than books — it carries a child’s hopes, fears, and story. Attendance isn’t just data. It’s a signal. #InclusiveAttendance #EveryBagCounts #Safeguarding

This week the children completed their double page spreads all about the UK 🇬🇧 So impressed with how much they remembered !!
