Gleed Boys School

Attendance at Gleed Boys School is around 90%, which many consider acceptable. However, what does a 90% attendance rate really mean? It translates to missing about half a day of lessons weekly, equating to four weeks of missed classes in a school year. Consistently maintaining a 90% attendance throughout five years could mean losing half a school year of valuable learning. This can significantly impact academic performance, affecting GCSE outcomes. Understanding these statistics is crucial for students and parents to prioritize attendance.
