truancy
Significado: The practice of staying away from school without permission or valid reason; unauthorised absence from an educational institution.
Truancy is a significant concern in UK education, with local authorities empowered to issue fines to parents whose children persistently miss school without authorisation. 'Playing truant' (or informally 'bunking off' or 'skiving') is a long-standing expression in British English. Truancy officers or education welfare officers work to identify and support pupils with poor attendance. Persistent truancy is linked to lower educational attainment and higher risk of youth crime.
