Research we funded from @MKleinSoc & @emsosu shows the long-term consequences of missing school. Just 5 days of absence at age 10 increases the likelihood of being out of the labour market between ages 30-42.
📜Their final report was published this week:

Today, I am publishing new research which confirms the strong link between absence and attainment.
