      There’s a lot of parents who legitimately don’t give a fuck about their children’s education.

      My mother was a teacher and does supervision for the leaving cert every year. It’s pretty shocking and sad how many kids just don’t turn up for exams when she’s in disadvantaged areas.

      If no-one cares enough to even make sure you show up for your LC, you’re not exactly set up for success in life

      And nothing will be done.

      Joke of an organization and we haven’t seen the worst of it yet

      I can tell you coming from a person whose child is mercilessly bullied and the school are aware, tusla can f**k right off! They know why he is out. The child bullying my child is a ward of Tusla so come to my door all they want. My child is barely functioning because of being ASD and bullied at 15.

      There are somewhere around 800k children between 5 & 16 attending school.

      If only 8000 have attendance low enough to be worthy of reporting to TUSLA, I’d say we’re doing OK.

      Just fyi my kid would often be in this category and he’s doing fine he just gets sick a lot.

      Okay, so some of this is completely Bellshill though. My son missed 14 days this year. Totally legitimate and registered with the preferred app the school uses to communicate. Non of the days were actually recorded, and on top of that some day where he would be late due to appointments he would not be classed as attending at all. We had a letter from the school and tusla and cleared it right up, but my misses is a teacher so we know how to navigate it. In not saying ot doesn’t happen, but I am saying I don’t believe the number in the slightest…

      Heard that they don’t take illnesses into consideration, so probably a lot of needless stress for many parents.

      I attended school for a total of 40 days in 5th and 6th year due to horrendous bullying. Granted this was at the end of the 90s but my God I wish there had been some sort of support available.

      Sadly these threads are always like a bingo game. Bullying, mental health and sen.

      My MIL bought my SIL a tattoo instead of her mock papers I think that says it all

      Email from school:

      “Under no circumstances send your child to school if they are in any way ill.”

      Email from school:

      “Your child has missed ten days of school this year”

      I’ve been reported every year apart from the COVID homeschooling years since my child started school.

      My child has asthma and every year sep to march can get 2 or 3 illnesses where it’s a week each time off school. Then add in random days here and there and 20 are clocked up. Even though I submit a note every time and for the week I’d give a doctors note, I’m still reported. But I give zero fucks tbh, if my child is sick, they are sick, end of, sharing is not caring and it grinds my gears parents shoving their kids into school when they are sick to spread their virus.
