At Ahipara School, our school vision of Ma Mahi Te Kai underpins our approach to attendance - every tamaiti striving to reach their potential. Our Stepped Attendance Response outlines our process for monitoring, supporting and improving attendance - so every tamaiti can strive to be the best they can be.
Our government has set a national target of 80% of students attending school at least 90% of the time. This means that tamariki should be absent for no more than one day a fortnight to ensure that they can have continued success at school.
