12. Your commitment
Tutors SA would like to emphasise the importance ofregular class attendance. While most students areconsistent with their attendance, in the past we haveexperienced some irregular class attendance with some ofthe students throughout the year. Irregular classattendance directly impacts on students’ performance, andthe ability to grasp concepts taught in subsequent lessons.
At Tutors SA, in most situations there are multiple groupsper year level for a given subject at different times of theweek. This facilitates up to a maximum of 2 replacementclasses/sessions per term should the student beunavailable to attend their regular session.
However, we appreciate if parents can monitor theirchild’s attendance more closely and actively work onsending them to all the scheduled classes. We believetutors, students, as well as parents should work togetherto ensure the best outcome is achieved for the students.
