Report an absent student


If your child is unwell:

  • Please inform the school via the Arbor Parent App on every day of absence, no later than 8:40am. Click 'Message' on the app which sends a message to their head of year office. Please start the message with your child's tutor group and full name. If you do not have access to this, please telephone the school absence line on 01202 497184.
  • If you know in advance that your child needs to be absent then please do let us know via the Arbor Parent App, or the absence line.
  • In the unlikely event that you have been unable to contact the school to explain your child’s absence, then please write a note in their planner and ask your child to show this to his/her form tutor on their return.

In the unlikely event of a school closure please refer to The Grange School website for information and updates.
