Emotionally Based School Avoidance.

NSPCWT Would like to invite parent carers and professionals to a fully funded session on this training from Catrina Lowri on emotionally based school avoidance. This session has been requested by our parent carer community and we are so excited to be able to offer the support and guidance needed when families are experiencing this common issue.

Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA) is a term used to describe children and young people (CYP) who experience challenges in attending school due to negative feelings (such as anxiety). EBSA is commonly associated with emotional and physical distress, and a reluctance to attend school, which can lead to reduced attendance and further anxiety regarding school.

During this session, Catrina will guide you through the why's and the how's to try and support you through this with your child/young person. You will have the chance to dicuss your personal circumstances if you wish, and to give you the tools and strategies to put in place.
