Guiding Children Through Emotionally Based School Avoidance ( EBSA)
ByPublisher Description
Guiding Children Through Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA) is a compassionate, practical, and evidence-informed guide for anyone supporting a child who finds school overwhelming. Drawing on real-world experience and current best practice, this book explains what EBSA really is, why it happens, and how anxiety, trauma, neurodivergence, and unmet needs can quietly push children out of education.
Inside, you'll discover:
- The psychology behind school avoidance
- Early warning signs every adult should know
- What helps – and what can make things worse
- Step-by-step strategies for home and school
- How to work with professionals and education systems
Clear, honest, and empowering, this book helps families and professionals move away from blame and toward understanding, rebuilding trust, confidence, and a child's sense of safety.
