New: EBSNA Poster
Following the launch of the Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance (EBSNA) Framework for Schools last June (2025), the attached poster has also been developed to provide advice, guidance and signposting for parents/carers whose children are struggling to attend school regularly.
The EBSNA Framework aims to provide professionals with a clear and accessible tool, that enables them to work more collaboratively with children, young people and their families. It uses a structured and transparent step-by-step approach to identifying the underlying issues that are preventing children and young people from attending; alongside practical guidance on the support and strategies needed for creating an action plan to help them return to school.
