CThe teachers should take it as a serious problem ✓ Correct

DAbsentees should be given less priority in the classroom than regular students

Correct answer: (C) The teachers should take it as a serious problem

Explanation

To check absenteeism, teachers should treat it as a serious problem and address its causes.

Absenteeism is usually a symptom of deeper academic or personal difficulty needing attention.

Merely getting the principal and parents worried creates anxiety without a solution.

Posting a notice against absentees on the board humiliates rather than helps them.

Giving absentees less classroom priority punishes and further alienates them.

Regular attendance is best secured through an engaging classroom and pastoral care, not sanctions.
