Every Day Counts!

It is vital that your child attends school as regularly as possible. Research has clearly shown that regular attendance has a positive impact on children’s achievement. Being at school regularly helps your child build friendships with other children, and your child can feel “left out” after an absence.

At East Preston Infant School we reward good attendance by awarding individual certificates on a termly and annual basis and weekly stickers for the class with the highest attendance.

Adverse Weather Conditions

We always endeavour to keep the school open and will only close if absolutely necessary.  School closure announcements will be posted on the front page of the website from 7.30am onwards and are made on Heart FM and Spirit FM and their websites. We will also send a 'Call Parents' text message to all parents ONLY if the school will be closed. Alternatively, all West Sussex school closures are listed and regularly updated on West Sussex County Council's website.
