Welcome to Our Self-Guided Online Course for Parents of Children with School Refusal
Supporting You and Offering Insight and Solutions
Dear parents,
Welcome to the School Refusal Recovery Course. I know how tough it can be when your child struggles with school refusal. It can be frustrating and stressful, and you might feel like you're at your wit's end. But there's hope and this Course offers you just that.
This self-guided online course is designed specifically for parents and caregivers like you. We'll help you understand the complexities of school refusal, explore proven Psychological strategies which we'll teach you how to apply in your home, and get your child back to school with confidence. You'll create your own Gradual Exposure Plan (also known as a Transition Plan) and work on your own circumstances throughout the Course, so it's tailored just for you. Each written Lesson comes with audio and video at the bottom of each page so the whole course caters to all learning styles.
Each Lesson offers practical exercises and activities to help you apply the concepts to your child's specific situation. The course is designed so that you can work on the strategies each week, put them into practice during that week, and progress through the Lessons as you learn and see real changes in your home. If you'd like to work faster, that's okay, there's no restrictions, just remember some of these Lessons are quite heavy in Psychological Theory so take lots of breaks. We'd suggest, one Lesson per day if you'd like to work faster.
A supportive community of parents just like you:
