Lying to coerce a child into doing something they hate could be fine. But it also could be catastrophic. The proper* parenting move is obviously to figure out why the child doesn't like going to school, and address that.

I'm a new parent. When the time comes I'm going to do my best to help them figure out how to enjoy school. I'm sure you will / would too when it comes came down to it.

You can either accept that as an inevitability, or try and figure out ways for your child to actually enjoy school. The latter makes you a better parent.
