Attendance & Punctuality

At Grove Street, we aim for 97% attendance and we are proud to be part of Wirral's #EverydayCountsCampaign to improve school attendance.https://www.wirral.gov.uk/schools-and-learning/attendance-support-and-advice

We follow the guidance set out in the DfE's 'Working Together to Improve School Attendance'.
