I won't just punish him for instance. I will ask them why they are refusing to go to school. Children always have a reason on why they are doing something strange. Maybe there is something to do with bullying, and this is a serious case. So investigation is prior important to me.

This is a really good answer also and should be considered first and formost! Some children just don't like to go to school and will do anything to find a way to miss. For others, there is a real solid reason why.

make them do difficult house chores at home. they'll think twice next time they are thinking of skipping school.

It depends on the child. When my oldest daughter refused to go to school, I would be at work. I would find out when the school called me. She was 13. After a few times of this, I just called the truant officer who picked her up and escorted her to school. She had plenty of warning that this would happen the next time she skipped. It happened only once.
