may be absent for part of the day or
missing out on some periods (Moseki,
2004) or ‘full’ where the student is
absent for an entire day (Moseki,
2004). In South Africa, much
work has been dedicated to student’s
absenteeism in schools which in
context literally means that a learner
is not
at school for the entire day (Mashiane,
1997; Whitney, 1998; Moseki, 2004).
