Every Day Counts

Research shows there is a relationship between how much your child attends school and their overall academic achievement. Regular school attendance is strongly correlated with academic success, and chronic absenteeism, or prolonged periods of school absence, can have a negative impact on a child’s educational attainment.

There is also a relationship between attending school and social and emotional

outcomes. On average, we see that regular interaction with peers and teachers fosters

social skills, emotional intelligence, and a sense of belonging. Children who consistently

miss school may experience feelings of isolation, struggle with forming positive

relationships, and face challenges in developing essential life skills. School is often a

place where students receive emotional support from educators and peers.

Additionally, completing education is often associated with better employment

prospects, higher earning potential, and an improved overall quality of life. Children

who miss substantial amounts of school may face difficulties transitioning to higher

education or entering the workforce. This can limit their options and hinder their ability

to pursue fulfilling and rewarding careers.
