Parental As Anything

Back to School - Navigating school refusal


Listen Later

School resistance and school refusal are a growing concern for our kids and teens.  While many kids will complain about school at some point along the way, for some kids the issues is much bigger. Some kids just can’t.

Maggie Dent talks to education consultant and former principal Adam Voight about how to tackle school refusal head on. 

We explore the best ways to advocate for your child, to how to find support, plus families who went through it and came out the other side. 

And we ask the big question: When should you just change schools? 

The advice provided in this podcast is general in nature and does not take into account your personal situation. If you require further advice specific to your needs, please consult a professional.
