Parent Information 2025
Under the Education Act 1972 (SA) and the Education (Compulsory Education Age) Amendment Act 2007, schools are required to ensure students enrolled at the school, attend and participate in the learning program.
We accept there are circumstances such as family emergencies and opportunities for girls to participate in various competitions, sporting and otherwise that necessitate absence from school. We also recognise participation in co-curricular programs outside of St Peter’s Girls can be an important part of a student’s development and education.
Scheduling family vacations during term time cannot be supported by our School. Of the 365 days in in a year, approximately 50% are designated school days. To maintain the continuity and integrity of your daughter’s education, it is important she attend all compulsory school days.
Applications for any leave outside School holidays are to be sent to the relevant Head of Sub-School to review. Leave for family holidays during term time will be recorded as unapproved leave and as has always been the case, illness substantiated by a medical certificate will be the only circumstance under which the rescheduling of an assessment task in the Senior School will be warranted. Term dates for 2025 and 2026 are available on our website.
