Answer

What should parents do if a child arrives at a Mallorca school when no one is there?

Parents should make sure children know exactly where to wait and who to contact if the school is closed or empty. A simple routine helps: keep emergency numbers in the backpack, agree on a meeting point, and tell the child not to leave the area alone. Schools in Mallorca also need clear communication about opening times so families do not end up with different expectations.
