Can my child go to school and come back without adult supervision?
Germany - Niedersachsen
English
Do you have a child aged 12-16?

Your child is allowed to go the way to school and back home without adult supervision. The primary school is often close to where you live, so your child can walk to school alone. Practice the way to school together with your child before starting school. Do not choose the shortest, but the safest way. If the school is further away, your child can ride a bicycle or public transport. You should also practice these ways together with your child before, so that it can master the way safely.
