Permalink Nanny State: Frederiksberg Council to wake up school children

Council employee will enter homes to wake up children and get them to school. - Frederiksberg Council is set to introduce a new 'wake up' programme in order to combat truancy, Berlingske newspaper has reported. The move comes after the success of Nyborg Council’s wake-up system, which was implemented last year and has resulted in a significant decrease in absenteeism. Similar to Nyborg, Frederiksberg will hire an employee whose job will be to ensure that school children attend school regularly and on time.

“We feel just like several other schools where kids are failing to turn up,” Margit Ørsted, the chairman of Frederiksberg’s teaching committee, told Berlingske newspaper. “A council ‘waker’ will function as an authority and show up at the child’s address and make both the parents and the child aware that they should attend school.”
