Arbor
Here at Bluecoat Trent Academy, we use Arbor as our main source of communication between home and school. Arbor is a digital communications tool which allows you, as parents, to see a wealth of important information concerning your child, right at your fingertips. We use Arbor to inform you about key dates in the term, to keep you up to speed with your child’s learning and for sending out important notices, among many other things.
To get on board with us, download the Arbor app onto your smart phone or tablet and or use this link https://login.arbor.sc/auth/
You will require an enrolment code to get started, which will be issued to families when they join the school, along with instructions on how to get set up.

Attendance
The Academy’s minimum expectation for attendance is 97%. Regular attendance means that your child has a much better chance of reaching their full potential throughout each and every year. It is your responsibility to ensure that your child attends the Academy regularly and punctually. As well as the significant loss in learning opportunities which come from low attendance, there is a significant reason to demonstrate high attendance and punctuality, as these personal records are sent to employers, higher education institutions and apprenticeships when references are requested.
