In episode 3 of our Introduction to Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA) podcast series, Michelle will look at EBSA due to Adverse Childhood Experiences and trauma.
She discusses what this feels like for students, how this can present in a student’s behaviour and how schools could respond to the child’s presentation of EBSA behaviours.
This podcast series hosted by headteacher Michelle Masters, aims to improve understanding of Emotionally-Based School Avoidance (EBSA), specifically looking at what it is, how it can present, what the challenges in mainstream school can be and how to support the student.
There is overlap between the three causes of EBSA for example an autistic child may also have experienced trauma, but there will be differences in approach depending on whether the key barrier is neurodiversity, trauma or anxiety.
This podcast series is aimed at education professionals and parents/guardians.
