Absences

Attendance is a priority at MPPS to ensure continuity of learning and to allow our students to reach their potential.  All absences must be explained to the school. COMPASS is used to notify the school of a student's absence. If a student will be absent, their parent/carer must enter an Attendance Note in Compass. For students who arrive late to school or are absent for only part of the school day, parents/carers must sign them in or out of the school at the kiosk in the school office. If you have any questions about absences please contact the school: MosmanPark.PS@education.wa.edu.au

^{To notify absences via COMPASS - follow these steps:}

• From the Compass home screen click the ‘Submit absence note’ item accessed from the Shortcut button
• On the pop-up window -select the reason from the drop down list
• Enter a brief description of the absences in Details/Comment
• Select the start and finish date/time 
• Click the ‘Save’ button 

Where possible, absence notes should be entered prior to the absence.

Absences will be followed up by an email if no reason is provided. This is a reporting requirement.
