How to report your child being absent or sick

For each day your child is absent from school for any reason you must telephone the school office on 01483 274961 before 9.00am to explain the absence and send a note on their return to school.

If you email us info@stcuthbert-mayne.surrey.sch.uk about an absence, you will not receive an acknowledgement reply due to the large volume of emails we receive in relation to this daily.  

If your child has a stomach bug, they should not return to school until 48 hours after the last episode of illness.

Absence Request

In exceptional circumstances when leave in term time is unavoidable, a leave of absence request form must be completed as soon as possible once the dates of the proposed period of absence are known. The Leave of Absence Request Form can be obtained from the school office.
