When school becomes a struggle, it can be difficult to know what is really getting in the way. This workshop explores the demands children face at school, including social expectations, constant change and the pressure to keep going.
We'll look at what may sit beneath avoidance, refusal and shutdown, and consider how 'can't' can sometimes look like 'won't'. We'll also make space for the impact on parents, including self-doubt, guilt and exhaustion.
