You should not be late or absent for any of your classes.
An acceptable explanation must be given to your lecturer as soon
as possible as to why you were late or absent. If you arrive late,
you are expected to apologize and take your seat quietly
without disrupting the class. Action will be taken if:
›You are absent for unacceptable reasons for more than 20% of
any term;
›You are absent for more than three days at once;
›Your attendance shows a pattern of decline;
›Your absences show a pattern, e.g. Every Monday morning;
›You regularly arrive late without good reason.
If your attendance and/or punctuality provide cause for concern
you will have to follow one of the courses of action outlined below:
1. You and your Lecturer will have a discussion where you will
set goals and create an action plan to help you attend more
regularly and punctually;
2. Your Student Support Officer will make contact with you to
discuss what help you need to improve your attendance and
punctuality;
3. If you still fail to meet the required standards of attendance and
punctuality then the College may take disciplinary action.
