MHK says there's a lack of support
Government's been accused of not doing enough to ensure children in care get a fair education.
North Douglas MHK David Ashford pressed both the education and health and social care ministers on what they were doing to tackle the issue.
Around a dozen children who are looked after by the state are currently thought to be regularly play truant.
Mr Ashford says it represents a failing of the system:
'There's a site sat there doing nothing': Former minister and committee chair at odds over Summerland
Application refusal 'was based on five clear and substantive planning reasons'
'Prayers answered' as Douglas RNLI eyes new base and new lifeboat
Crew helping to develop craft described as 'the future of lifeboating'
Government forecast to underspend despite mounting health and pension pressures
Tax receipts offset rising costs in Manx Care, pensions and benefits
