    Pembrokeshire pupil's 13-year 100% attendance record

    His father died when he was young
    He never took a day off work, or got sick, before he died though.

    BBC News - Pembrokeshire pupil's 13-year 100% attendance record

    Not taking sick days can't be that uncommon. I never had a sick day off school either. It's probably more down to having good attendance records kept. My teachers skived a lot.

        Erm, shall I help MP with the maths here?

        5 (school starting age)
        + 13 (years in attendance)
        = 18

        It's a miracle isn't it?

                Possibly, but he can probably add up.

                    And was it within one standard deviation of the mean?
