Secondary School Routine
Late & Absence Procedure:
The School records late arrivals and absences. If a student is late to school (7.50am onwards) they must sign in with either Mr Abass or Mr Rudling. If a child is absent for any reason, a phone call will be made to ensure that the absence recorded is valid. Information is recorded on all absences and late arrivals which may have to be submitted to the Ministry of Education. A student must bring a note or send an email to the tutor for any absences.
To notify the school of absence please either call 037678636 or send an email to our dedicated absence email address: absence@aaess.sch.ae
Signing Out
Students must have signed permission from their form tutor and head of key stage or member of SLT before going to the Secondary security building. If you know in advance that you will be collecting your child during the school day, please email their form tutor so we are aware and this will speed up the leaving process.
