We are proud to announce our exceptional attendance performance, having been consistently recognised as one of the highest-ranking schools for attendance across Rotherham.
According to the latest published data from Gov.uk, Aston Hall Junior & Infant School has secured the top position out of 96 school settings in Rotherham for the majority of the current academic year.
This achievement reflects our ongoing commitment to building positive learning environments where students progress and attendance is prioritised.
The most recent data shows that we are ranked:
- 1st out of 96 schools for overall attendance
- 1st for lowest levels of persistent absence, with a rate of just 1.6%
This figure is particularly significant when compared to the national average persistent absence rate of 14% across all primary schools, highlighting our excellent performance on a national scale.
Scott Holmes, Headteacher at Aston Hall Junior & Infant School, said: “We are extremely proud of our students, families and staff for their dedication and commitment to ensuring children attend school regularly. Strong attendance is fundamental to achieving the best possible outcomes and these results are down to the collective effort of our entire school community.”
Ann-Marie Lee, Executive School Improvement Partner at Wickersley Partnership Trust, added: “Across Wickersley Partnership Trust, we are committed to creating environments where students can achieve their full potential, and this is a clear example of what can be accomplished when that vision is embedded day in, day out. It reflects our sustained focus on inclusion, strong relationships and a shared determination to give every child the very best chance to succeed.”
We will continue to work closely with families to support every child in accessing their education fully. This achievement demonstrates the impact of strong partnerships, high expectations and a shared belief in the importance of every school day.
