What should I write in a school absence note?

State who the note is for, the date(s) of absence, and a brief reason — you don't need to go into detail. Keep it polite and to the point.

Do I need to give a specific reason for my child's absence?

No. Many schools accept a general reason like "unwell" or "family matter." Choose "Prefer not to say" if you'd rather not specify.

How do I let the teacher know about missed schoolwork?

Use the "Detailed" tone or "Long" length — both add a line asking about missed assignments or confirming your child will catch up.

Can I send this note by email instead of on paper?

Yes — most schools accept absence notes by email or through a parent portal. Use the "Formal" tone for a professional-sounding message either way.

Does this tool store what I type?

No — every message is generated locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to our servers or stored. See our Privacy Policy for details.
