26TRA260 Reluctant School Attendance

Date:     Thursday 5th February 2026
Time:     4.15 - 5.30 pm
Venue:  Online via Zoom

This webinar provides information to post primary schools on how to manage Reluctant School Attendance and School Avoidance Behaviour.

Reluctant attendance and school avoidance behaviour describes students’ reluctance to go to school, being late for school/absent from school regularly, or for long periods of time and partial absences. NEPS have developed guidance documents to support schools and parents.

The webinar will orient attendees to these guidance documents for parents and schools and provide schools with information and best practices for schools in supporting students to attend and stay in school.
