Four very special Learners at Kepier School
achieved a rare commendation this year at their Leaver’s assembly. They all
maintained 100% attendance for their five years studying at Kepier, never a day
off in all of their secondary education. Mr Bisset the Senior Pastoral Leader
for the School’s attendance said; ‘This is an exceptional achievement by any
standards and while we appreciate not everyone is able to achieve this reward
due to their personal circumstances this is a story of superb willpower,
resilience and a drive for achievement. Something struck a chord with me when I
discovered that the only day Stephanie (pictured to the right) had to be absent
from school in five years was to attend her Grandfathers funeral. There were so
many powerful stories like this one where other learners came close to
achieving this award. Some of our runners up only missed out by three days. It’s
a great credit to our school to have learners with this sort of commitment
inspiring other younger learners to follow in their footsteps. I have no doubt
these learners and many others like them will go on to achieve great things
applying the same attitude they have devoted to their School attendance to
their future education and later careers.
