‘My name is Alex Bennett and I am the Link Education Welfare Officer with Euston Street Primary School this year. Through the Education Welfare Service, it is my role to work alongside the school in promoting attendance. There is legal duty on parents to promote school attendance and Euston Street can refer into our service any child whose attendance is below 85%. At that point either myself or a colleague may be in contact to assist with improving attendance. School is so important for children and helps them build not just academically but socially and emotionally.
If you have any concerns or difficulties with supporting your child to school, I urge you to speak to school, and please always remember to report any absence to the school, too. I will be working to help to ensure as many pupils can be in this year to enjoy their education at Euston Street and look forward to working with the school to achieve that.’
