The school is monitoring students' absenteeism. If we worry, the parents will be informed. As a school, we can also register the student with the Youth Health team. They invite the parents and their child to a conversation. The youth doctor then discusses what causes the absence and how further absenteeism can be reduced. The health of the younger is always central to this. At the request of the school, the GGD can also advise on the taxable capacity of a sick pupil. After the interview, data will be returned to school in consultation with the student and parents.

The school transmits relevant information to the GGD. If parents object, they can report this to the vice principal's escort, Mrs. Schoeren.
