Emotional Based School Avoidance

Is Your Child Struggling to Attend School?School-related anxiety, often referred to as 'school refusal,' happens when a child feels fearful or anxious about attending school and may be unable to go. This is also known as emotionally-based school avoidance (EBSA) or anxiety-related absence. This challenge can arise at any age but is particularly common in children with additional or special educational needs (SEN). There are many potential causes for school-related anxiety, including:
  • Overwhelming environments, such as large numbers of students or excessive noise.
  • Academic pressures or difficulties with curriculum demands.
  • Social challenges, bullying, or fear of failure.
As a parent, dealing with this situation can be stressful, leaving you feeling uncertain about how to best support your child.
