1 Children who truant are regularly absent from school, usually while pretending to their parents that they have gone to school:
2 someone who is absent from school without permission
The police do not have a general power to return truants to school.
The suggestion about rounding up truants would also require very careful thinking before one could contemplate taking it any further.
Anyone who has worked with persistent truants knows that they often come from difficult, disrupted and unstable family backgrounds.
In many cases, that was my experience as a teacher in dealing with truants and their parents.
The percentage of time missed due to truancy is decreasing, and children are truanting for shorter periods.
They go out and about in the city, on a day-to-day basis, picking up truants and taking them back to where they should be.
By the former, the report means truants, and so on.
Truants are people who have all the broad social difficulties and truancy is related to juvenile delinquency, vandalism and other such behaviour.
