A school is waging a war on pupil's non-attendance by getting teachers to knock on their doors to them out bed in the morning.
The bizarre move has been hailed as "especially important" by staff at an east London school, after it was found that kids were missing out on many hours of education time.
In order to tackle this, staff at Cumberland Community School make daily home visits to every child who does not have a legitimate reason for staying away from school.
