Season 70 Episode 36: Why Kids Miss School

School’s back, but not everyone is turning up. Covid lockdowns have left a legacy of persistent absence amongst some students, and schools are under pressure to get them back through the gates. For Panorama, the BBC’s Education Editor, Branwen Jeffreys, has spent three months following the lives of students struggling to return to the classroom and asks whether harsher measures, including fining parents, can work.
