Truancy prosecution was LEA’s ‘duty’.
The responsibility of ensuring our children attend school is a joint effort between school and parent. The school tried everything in it’s power to correct the situation and without support from the parent in question, failed. One half of the party did it’s job, the other didn’t. Yes it’s a harsh sentence, but Ms. Amos had already broken a parenting order and knew the consequences of her actions.
I’m writing more about this, soon to be posted.
