Attendance policy. 100% attendance is usually expected. The effect of any necessary absences on that student's work will be assessed by the tutor, and where necessary extra work in compensation may be required. More than two absences may result in the student having to leave the course, if in the teacher's judgment too much has been missed. However, the tutor appreciates that teacher trainers maybe obliged to have some unavoidable absence, so there may be room for some flexibility, provided that the main course requirements are met.
