EDUCATION IS NOT AN OPTION – IT’S COMPULSORY

Consider your legal responsibility. Under Section 30 of the Education (Scotland) Act 1980

‘It shall be the duty of the parent of every child of school age to provide efficient education for him suitable of his age, ability and aptitude either by causing him to attend public school regularly or by other means’.

Under Section 35 of the Education (Scotland) Act 1980 ‘Non-attendance at school without reasonable excuse is an offence’.
