Attendance support for parents and young people
The return to education at the end of the school holidays can be a difficult time for a variety of reasons. The start of the new term comes with plenty of challenges, from social worries to the stress of ensuring they’re entirely ready for upcoming lessons and learning.
Of course, these youngsters don’t have to weather these burdens alone, and as parents and educators, we should do all we can to support the children in our care as they head back to school. This free guide offers you expert advice on how you can be there for children and young people as they transition back into their school’s routine.

Emotional Based School Avoidance (EBSA)
- In the last few years, professionals have started describing traditional ‘school refusal’ as emotional based school avoidance. This is when a young person feels unable to come to school, they view school as an unsafe place for their physical and mental health. Whilst it may not always feel like it to the young person, school has been prov en to be a protective factor when supporting their mental health. It is a legal requirement that young people attend school, therefore it is essential that school and home work together to provide support as quickly as possible. The longer school avoidance continues, the harder it can be to get a young person back into full time education
Advice and Guidance:
- Be vigilant for patterns of illness. It may always be a Friday; the day a young person has PE or they may immediately start feeling better when you’ve said they don’t have to go to school.
- Discuss your child’s worries and fears, often the worry is something small, but for them it feels very big. Talk through practical solutions to their worry. Avoid describing their fears as minor.
- Sometimes a young person won’t speak to their parents, use anyone who they can talk to: a sibling, grandparent, family friend etc.
- Help them to put things in perspective, not every moment of the day will feel awful, what are they look ing forward to, however small.
- Have a discussion at the end of the day, was it as bad as they thought it would be. Problem solve the next day together.
- Communicate with school staff, who can often make adjustments to reduce the worry.
- If the problems persist the young person may need some additional support. Speak with school or your GP who can refer you to a counselling service.
