Attendance

TCOLC Sixth Form is committed to creating a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment that promotes academic excellence and personal development. To achieve this, we have established the following Behaviour and Attendance Policy, which outlines our expectations for student behaviour, attendance requirements, and the consequences of non-compliance.

Our Behaviour and Attendance Policy aims to create a positive learning environment that fosters academic growth, personal development, and responsible citizenship. At TCOLC we aim to educate our young people by providing them with a wealth of opportunities that that builds each student’s character. All behavioural and pastoral programmes are designed to develop the character of the students, in line with the four TCOLC Character Pillars.

It is important for all students, staff, and parents and carers to familiarise themselves with this policy and adhere to its guidelines for the benefit of the entire college community.

Behaviour & Attendance Policy

Absence

In the event of planned absences we expect that a student’s parent/carer to contact the sixth form administrator at least 24 hours before the absence is scheduled.  In all instances the student and their parents/carers should first consider whether the absence is unavoidable. Parent/carer should fill in the online form with all necessary information for this absence to be recorded.

The absence form should be completed daily before 08:30 for all absences.
