student attendance

Student attendance refers to the presence of students at school or educational events. It is a key indicator of engagement and participation in learning. High attendance rates often correlate with better academic performance, as regular presence allows for consistent learning and interaction with teachers and peers. Conversely, frequent absences can hinder a student’s progress and understanding of the material. Schools typically track attendance to identify any patterns or issues, which can help address barriers to learning and support student success. Monitoring attendance also plays a role in funding and resource allocation for educational institutions.
