Kylemore CTC’s policy in relation to absence and attendance at the centre has been adapted from Irish Law Guidelines and there are no exceptions made.  This is important so that when you progress into a workplace you will have an understanding of what an Employer would expect from you.

1.   You need to contact the CTC before you are due to start your class (i.e. before 8.30 am).

2.   Tell us why you will be absent and when you will return.

3.   Medical Notes must be requested by you from your doctor to explain your absence if sick.  

4.   ETB policy regarding payment for absence will be explained.

5.   You must keep in touch with your keyworker or the office.

6.   If we do not hear from you in a number of days, a letter will be sent requesting you to a meeting.  If you fail to attend this meeting we will notify the ETB that you are no longer interested in remaining on the course.
