Client Testimonials

Momenta Attendance has been with Wildridings for over a year now. Before our ACO started attendance was flagged by Ofsted as an area for concern at Wildridings Primary School. Our ACO’S knowledge and support has helped us turn this around. We wouldn’t be where we are without this support. Our ACO works brilliantly with my attendance officer and is always looking for new ways to improve. She meets parents both in school and at their homes. She never shies away from a difficult conversation but does so in a very positive manner. Our ACO has helped implement rewards at school such as certification assemblies; attendance mascots and displays. She has raised the profile of attendance across the school, and it is evident around the building and amongst parents that attendance is important. I would like to personally thank our ACO and WPA Attendance for all of their support – they really have made a difference.Wildridings Primary School – Bracknell Forest

We have been using Momenta Attendance for five years and have seen great impact from their services. We have been able to keep consistency with our Attendance Case Officer (ACO) and this has enabled a strong relationship and history to be built with our families. The impact of having a dedicated welfare officer to support our school’s attendance officer keeps attendance high on our agenda and raises the status of attendance amongst the school community. We have found our ACO to be incredibly professional, responsive to all types of communication, and understanding of family situations but with the careful balance of being able to enforce parent contracts and take the next steps to fixed penalty notices and court action where necessary. We would not be without the Momenta Attendance service and recently doubled our service level agreement so that the work can continue as our school expands. We would happily recommend them to any school looking for ACO support.Woodcote Primary School – Croydon, Surrey

We are extremely pleased with the valuable service provided through our current Attendance Case Officer who has provided outstanding support in enabling us to improve on our already excellent attendance. Our ACO has built reliable and professional relationships with both staff and parents/carers and is an excellent communicator. Her proactive ethos has helped us improve the attendance of many of our students, helping reduce our persistent absence figures and we look forward to extending this partnership into the future.Rosebery School – Epsom, Surrey
