The Importance of Regular Attendance – Every Day Counts!
The Importance of Regular Attendance – Every Day Counts!
At Ōpiki School, we have a positive attitude toward learning and expect regular attendance to ensure every learner has the best opportunity to succeed. Attendance is reported to the Ministry daily.
The New Zealand Government has set a national attendance target of 80%, which means learners should have no more than five days off per term. Establishing good attendance habits early on is key to success in learning and life.

Research shows that regular attendance is one of the biggest factors in learner achievement, well-being, and lifelong success. Missing school can lead to:
Gaps in learning that can be difficult to catch up on.
Challenges with routines and friendships making school feel harder.
Increased disengagement which can affect future learning and opportunities.
