My school was also 85%.

Check the Board of Studies site, it should say it somewhere there.

I don't know, but I have been absent from school a lot for the past two weeks (because there's no Maths!) :D

I have been every day, its 85% though, we have flexies though so if we have a free in the morning or last period we can sign out which dont count for attendance

Doesn't it have to be zero unexplained absences, but those with a reason it doesn't matter. SO if your sick for 3 terms it doesn't matter (for examples sack, you'd probably repeat be choice) but you can't just wag and get caught? Thats how it was explained to us, but I think if you had a reason you'll be fine.

I got unsatisfactory on my report. I wasnt away a ridiculous amount of days, and it mainly only came about because I never bother to sign in.

i have lot of unexplained absences. i asked them for a list - and the list is at my parents place - my mum is willing to write notes for all the days.

i just never bothered to take notes in.

at an old school, i was taken to a truent officer and asked about family life. they ended up saying to me, that if you are sick - it's a problem to have a lot of absences - but if it's a family holiday or matter - then its fine... wtf.


if my unexplained absences arent seen to, will it really be a problem?

does it depend on the school ?? - because mine is very easy goin and only as 200 kids =]
