The Complexity of School Refusal - Webinar

Next date: Wednesday, 14 May 2025 | 07:00 PM to 08:30 PM

If your child is struggling to attend school, you’re not alone.

School Refusal—or School Can’t, as some call it—is a growing challenge affecting many families across all school settings.

Join us for a webinar where experts will explore the complexities of school attendance difficulties.

Featuring panellists from KYDS, EPIC and Youth Up Front, the webinar will examine:

• the factors involved
• the anxiety cycle's impact on attendance
• and strategies for early intervention.

It will also cover school initiatives aimed at supporting students and providing guidance on available resources and services for families.

Designed for parents and carers of children aged 10 to16 years (approximately Years 5 to 10), as well as educators, social service providers, and community members.

An initiative of the Northern Region Network of Councils, produced by Northern Beaches Council, with support from Lane Cove, Mosman, North Sydney, City of Ryde, Willoughby City, Hornsby, Ku-ring-gai, and Hunters Hill Council.

This event is online and free. Bookings are essential.
