Attendance Information For Parents
Tracker Tuesday
Every Tuesday, during Form Time, our students have the opportunity to discuss with their Form Tutor the importance of good attendance and punctuality and keep track of their current attendance figure. Form Tutors are there to offer support and guidance if needed, You can see your child’s attendance figure on ePraise.

Our Attendance grid shows where students are in terms of their attendance. They should be able to tell you what colour and what percentage attendance they have at all times throughout the year.
At Clywedog, we like to celebrate excellent attendance. We believe that students should be rewarded for improving their attendance, attending lessons on time and also for achieving good to excellent attendance on a regular basis. Students will be able to ‘cash in’ reward points from ePraise and spend them in the school shop. As a parent, you can log onto ePraise to keep track of their current attendance figure and achievement points (ePraise parent guide). Students will have the flexibility to use their achievement points for smaller rewards, more frequently or save them up for greater rewards towards the end of the academic year. Achievement points will reset to zero at the start of every academic year (Sept).
