Since is used for the point of time and it is correctly used in the sentence.
And for error findings, we have to find the error in the existing sentence and not the sentence we make on our own.

I think in the place of since, "for" is the right word.

I think that the correct answer is D because since is used to show the accurate time.

Why not, "He has been not attending"?

In Perfect continuous tense "For" is used for a period of time (eg 2 month, 1 month, 3 years, 40min) and "since" with point of time (eg; morning, evening, afternoon, last month, last year).

2 problems.
1) Use of been in "He has not been attending" and.
2) Since instead of For.
The sentence would be much better written as.
"He has not attended English classes for a month" or.
"He has not attended English classes since last month".
