It’s normal in every developed nation tbh.
Comment on Schools in England send police to homes of absent pupils with threats to jail their parents

To give you a little insight, it’s totally normal over here in Germany, since decades: (Allgemeine) Schulpflicht (English: (General) Compulsory Schooling)
The idea is, that every child has a right to education. Forcing their parents to let them attend school.
In rare cases police picks up the pupils or parents go to jail.
Still, it’s subject to ongoing discussion.

It’s also been UK law for a long time.
