THE Gatekeeper Beefeater at Hastingwood has teamed up with St Mark's School, Harlow, to encourage pupils to aim for a 100 per cent attendance record throughout the school year.

Pupils who achieve the 100 per cent record will be given the chance to receive a complimentary meal at the Gatekeeper to recognise the achievement.

Lower school head Norah Morrish said: "This initiative is designed to give our pupils an extra incentive to improve their attendance records throughout the year. The Gatekeeper is helping us to discourage unnecessary absence by offering pupils some fun to aim for."

Gatekeeper manager Paul Lockwood said: "We are delighted to reward pupils who achieve 100 per cent attendance and look forward to seeing many of them claiming their complimentary meal at the end of the school year."
