BICS Family Minds: Understanding Emotional Based School Avoidance

Understanding Emotional School Based Avoidance (EBSA)

BICS are inviting you to join a workshop which aims to increase your knowledge on Emotional Based School Avoidance (EBSA) and provide you with some skills and strategies to assist your young person in coping.

These workshops are aimed towards the parents/carers of children and young people.

This workshop aims to help you: identify what EBSA is and the risk and resilience factors for it, consider how to talk to children/young people about EBSA, consider what you can do as parents/carers to support, and consider what schools can do to support. There will also be opportunities for reflection and discussion.

The workshop is being held virtually to accommodate for childcare and work commitments.
