Truancy

School refusal is understood to mean a recurring or prolonged and usually unexcused absence from class. Occasional truancy can also be school refusal.

Refusal to attend school is an administrative offence that can be punished with a fine of up to 1000 euros.

Parents who do not ensure that underage pupils regularly attend classes can also act in violation of the regulations.

The action against school refusal is the task of the school in cooperation with the regulatory authority, the youth welfare offices and possibly also the family courts.
