Ribble Valley Borough Council

Truancy

Service outline:

Research shows that children who attend school regularly are likely to be more successful. A pupil who misses a day of school a week misses an equivalent of two whole years in their school life. This obviously leads to gaps in their knowledge that become difficult to fill.

Further information on Truancy is available from Lancashire County Council.
