Emotionally Based School Avoidance 2 - Positive and practical strategies

Emotionally Based School Avoidance 2 - Positive and practical strategies

About this session

Attendance has not returned to pre-pandemic levels. This is a concern to schools, parents, the DfE and OFSTED.

Pupils out of school are more at risk of poor mental health, social isolation, reduced self-esteem and poorer academic achievement.

This is a FOLLOW UP session which will add to the knowledge of those delegates who attended our first Emotionally Based School Avoidance training.

This session predominately focuses on practical and supportive strategies which are explored in much greater depth by our presenter Dr Kathy Jones.

Useful for:

Practitioners who want to gather pupil/student views

Parents who are concerned

Suitable for:

SENCos/ALNCos, Teachers, Learning Support Assistants and Parents

Also included:
