Australia Schools - Try Try Try Again

A school in Australia implemented a policy that required students and parents to be responsible for absences and missing homework. The teachers and the school were then sued by the parents who wanted their children's failing grades changed to passing grades. These students were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not complete enough school work to pass their classes. The school's staff voted unanimously for this message for incoming calls. This is what you would hear if you were to call the school.
