Should My mum get fined for this..

[Nemo]

Education Welfere Know whats been Happening, but they dont do any thing, and if I went for Profesional Help, I would get a Mental Record

i took 4months of school flat for depression... and bad eczema but i was depressed! and now i have counselling about being bullied (alot) but i dont have a mental record so just tell the officers as sed above and this actually culd help get ur life back in the way its meant to be, happy ^^

Say you were ill like you had tonselitus or something?

Also ye, you have to phone up the school otherwise it's un authorised abscene. I used to be off school alot for crap reasons, but my Mum authorised it by ringing up and said I had some illneess.

[Yoshimitsui]

Is their an education welfair officer in your scholl? If there is go see them, and you can have problems dealt with seriously. And i do think the fine is harsh. Couldant you get a doctors note to show them?

[Axel]

Also, education welfare officer shouldn't really get involved unless you have been at school for only 85% of the time, and all of the days you were off was un authorized. I got warned about it and all.

[brandon]

Have you told them the reason why you were off? If not you could get an authorised absence still.

[GoldenMerc]

Well, EVERY day at School, I get attacked of some sort and come home with bruses etc., and I have been getting depresed about it.
And I have had 5 Days off cos of Depresion, and Education welfere are fining my mum £50. Isnt Depresion a illness and a reason to be off school?
And arnt Education Welfere ment to prevent these things from happening and sort it out.

Also, the school know about this and havent done anything about it.

When i was getting bullied alot i was of and on for 2 months,Nothing happned tbh but now its all sorted,ALL i can say is go in,Ignore them.

[Moh]

was it authorised? did you ring up the school and tell them that you was ill because if you didnt you have no chance of getting away with the fine

Yep, shes rang in all the time and said I am depressed and get headaches from it, and they say well the only way they can sort it is if im at school so its a un authorised absence.

[beccyyy]

i had trouble with depression and i had like 60% over the whole year. they sorted it out at the begging of this year and my attendance isnt perfect but its about 75-80% and i want to get it to 90% or more and im not depressed anymore

[Rozi]

Yeah. In year 7 I had 67% attendence right and they aint fined my mum yet. Tbh ethier your not telling us somthing or your schools a general **** hole.

Get the rubbish sorted first then your mum should demand her money back.

[Axel]

Lol, his school isn't a **** hole if they're concerned about his attendance. Yours is. 67% is crazy.... if your school didn't follow that up to the welfare officer, it is really a crap school.
