CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

While occasional school absenteeism may not be problematic, excessive absenteeism has
shown to have a negative impact. Students with poor attendance records are found to be at a
disadvantage both academically and socially. Compared to their peers, these students are more
at risk of academic under-performance and early school leaving. They are also at risk of having
more restricted opportunities in terms of further education and employment, and are likely to
experience social and emotional problems in adulthood .Missing school can be a habit-forming
behavior and can be challenging to deal with despite growing awareness of the causes of
absenteeism.

Research evidence suggests that early interventions are six times more likely to be successful
than those after students’ non-attendance has reached the persistent stage. Equally, there is
normally one initial reason, referred to as “the trigger point”, for the students’ non-attendance. By
the time students’ absences have reached the persistent stage, there are at least several more
reasons used to justify the action.
