Attendance and absences
Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.
In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.

Communication procedures
A school is a community of people, comprising students, teachers, administra6ve staff, parents, volunteers, as well as other schools, community organisa6ons, local government, and the wider community. In internal communica6ons, all members of the school community have the right to privacy, whilst ensuring ongoing opportunity to par6cipate in school ac6vi6es. It should not be necessary to compromise the privacy and dignity of individuals in order to maintain open lines of communica6on among various segments of the school community.
