Attendance

Eltham High School’s Attendance Policy outlines the shared responsibilities in promoting attendance and encouraging engagement and participation at a whole school level. We recognise that effective monitoring and early intervention, by responding quickly with offers to work in partnership with students and their families, is crucial in managing non-attendance so that patterns do not become entrenched. Students are expected to attend school during normal school hours every day of each term unless there are approved exemptions.

Eltham High School aims to ensure that all students enrolled at the school attend regularly to maximise access to learning opportunities, and outlines the processes used to monitor student attendance in our Attendance Policy accessible on our school website or the link above.

Parent Payment

Schools must not have their own local Parent Payment Policy but instead must follow and implement the Department's Parent Payments Policy on the Parent Payments page of the Department's Policy and Advisory Library (PAL). This Parent Payments Policy outlines the ways in which schools can request financial contributions from parents and ensures that parent payment practices in Victorian government schools are consistent, transparent and that all students have access to the Curriculum.

Complaints

Link: Complaints Policy.pdf (elthamhs.vic.edu.au)

Our Complaints Policy provides an outline of the complaints process at Eltham High School so that students, parents and members of the community are informed of how they can raise complaints or concerns about issues arising at our school. We value open communication with our families and are committed to understanding complaints and addressing them appropriately. We aim to ensure that all complaints and concerns regarding Eltham High School are managed in a timely, effective, fair and respectful manner.
