GB News: School news: Parents who WFH contribute to poor school attendance as 'children think classroom is optional'
Ofsted's chief, Sir Martyn Oliver, attributes rising school absenteeism to parents working from home, which he claims has made school attendance feel optional for children. Persistent absence rates have surged, with one-seventh of primary and a quarter of secondary students missing school regularly.
Oliver emphasizes that the pandemic's shift to remote work and learning has disrupted children's development of social habits and routines. He advocates for a return to consistent school attendance to foster better educational outcomes. Meanwhile, new Ofsted grading reforms face criticism from educators and politicians for being ineffective.
