Mother could face jail after son misses 133 school days

The mother of an 11-year-old boy is facing prosecution after the child missed 133 school days since September.

The woman is facing prosecution by the Child and Family Agency (CFA) at Dublin District Court due to the number of school days her child has missed.

Adjourning the case, Judge John O’Neill warned the woman that there must be an improvement in her son’s school attendance.
