There is an increase in the volume of children who are presenting with school refusal/avoidance and we must start by accepting that this is a real issue and it doesn't have an instant magic wand fix.
Daisy outlines a very straight forward and meaningful methodology for supporting children and families to navigate a scenario where there is a reluctance to attend school.
Based on a collaborative approach with the child we explore the risk factors, identify the strengths and highlight the areas of change that would benefit from positive attention and action.
