Re: How would you define truanting?

The aim of my original question seems to have become lost in defending my daughter's attempt to improve on her GCSE coursework grade.

If I saw the word 'truant' on a student's report it would indicate to me a lazy person who shirks responsibility and not someone I would consider as a potential employee. If however, I saw a note that the student continued to strive for improvement above and beyond that already achieved I would have the totally opposite impression and see the person as someone keen and enthusiastic who I would be pleased to employ.
