Action On Rights For Children spoke to 120 local education authorities, and found most children stopped by police had a good reason to be off school.
The report found that for every four hours of police time, eight children were stopped, but only three were actually bunking off lessons.
Around 16,000 police hours a year are spent searching towns for truants.
That's the same as a year's work for 10 full-time police officers.
The charity says the same number of children still skip school as did five years ago, which proves sending police out looking for pupils doesn't work.
Thousands skip lessons
A separate study, by New Philanthropy Capital (NPC), found at least 70,000 children a day bunk off school.
And one in three admits to turning up to registration and then skipping a particular lesson.
The report discovered that even though the government has spent £10 billion on trying to get children to go to school, the same number are still playing truant as 10 years ago.
