Abstract	This article focuses on recent developments to find strategic solutions to the problem of truancy. It considers issues related to defining truancy and why reducing truancy matters before considering what causes truancy. The article concentrates upon seven areas where further work is needed: the role of parents (and carers); early intervention, literacy and numeracy; the views of children and young people; the role of schools and the curriculum; inter-agency and multi-agency practice; the link with bullying; the law and sanctions. Thereafter, the implications of issues arising from these fields are considered, alongside the need for further research. (As Provided).
