So, compared to Denmark, the attendance in the university is compulsory. If you're late or not attending 4 or more lectures without any reason, you'll automatically get a D.

Almost all elementary, secondary and highschool students wear uniforms, and sometimes the rules are even stricter, such as: you cannot dye hair, use any decorative cosmetics or nail color.
