Skipping classes in Germany is very easy... But if you overdo this, some teachers will get mad and inform your parents & the headmaster -.-

The older you get, the less the teachers care about students skipping classes. If very young students skip classes (like primary school, middle school), the parents are informed immediately.

But especially 13th grade (last year of high school) is all about skipping classes. Students then normally just go to school for tests and exams... or when they're bored of staying at home. You still have compulsory attendance, but normally the teachers don't care about this in 13th grade. It's pretty funny, when I went to class in 13th grad (very seldomly in the 2nd half) there were like 5-6 students of 26. But this made exam preparation easier, because the teacher had more time to concentrate on your problems.
