Support for Completing or Passing School

Students are required to actively participate in their education by, for example, attending classes on time, completing assignments, and not disrupting lessons.

Students who are frequently absent from school may struggle to meet the learning objectives. These difficulties can have long-term consequences. The school will therefore take an active role in helping students complete their education.

The school will register absences from the first day a student is missing and will monitor absence patterns. As a parent, you can expect the school to maintain close cooperation with the home to provide the best possible support for the student.

This is a legally mandated responsibility for schools. See in particular:
Opplæringslova § 10-6.

The school is responsible for student follow-up, but this is not something parents can formally apply for, nor are there official appeal options. However, you can always contact the school administration to request a meeting about how best to support your child.
