Is your school system private or public? Almost entirely public, although there are a few private schools (we are kinda Socialist though, so by a few, I mean literally 5)
What is a passing grade in your nation? A pass grade is 60%, and this measures actual achievement rather than relative achievement).
How many school days are there? Around 180 school days in a year, averaging 7 hours.
Is ditching school legal? No, students will be disciplined for skipping class.
Are Religious people allowed in school? Yes, but somewhat like in France, religion is considered separate from school (i.e. schooling is not permitted to advocate or give preferential treatment to any religion). Where it is not prohibited by a dress code, we would allow students to wear things like hijabs (and if students decided to dispute a dress code that prevented it, they would almost certainly win)
Are Atheists or Agnostics allowed in school? Yes
Are Homosexuals allowed in school? Yes, all sexual orientations are allowed in schools, and students are allowed to be open about it.
Are Heterosexuals allowed in school? Already adressed (although if you're going to do it this way, you could be more inclusive)
Are Blacks allowed in school? Yes, all races are allowed in schools.
Are Whites allowed in school? Already addressed (although once again, this isn't particularly inclusive if you do each individually)
Are females allowed in school? Yes, all genders are allowed in schools
Are males allowed in school? Already addressed (I won't criticise you for omitting further options in this one because statistics, but it could be improved with more options)
Are weapons allowed in school? Hell no.

If a student attempts to ditch school, the school (and possibly the police and/or mental health services) will investigate and attempt to solve any issues that the student may be having at school in order to accomodate them in the best way possible so they can get the best education feasible for the specific student. This is due to Corunia and Mironor formerly having some of the highest student depression and student suicide rates in the world, leading to a massive educational reform to solve the problem, as well as other problems the school system had
