Since the raising of school leaving age, has the parental responsibility to ensure that students attend school raised too, or does that responsibility still end in the year of the child's 17th birthday?
It would seem odd that a child can legally leave home at 16, but the parent is still held responsible for their attendance at school.
I'm not really interested in discussing the morality of the situation that this question will probably raise, I just want to know the legal situation.
