SCHOOL AVOIDANCE AWARENESS
WEEK EVENTS 2023

What is SAAW?

During School Avoidance Awareness Week we will be learning all about WHY children struggle to attend including anxiety, mental health, speech and language, sensory processing and so much more.

We will be talking to experts with revoluntary science-backed approaches along with specialist schools for children who struggle to attend.

EVENTS & ONLINE LEARNING

We’re delighted that our School Avoidance Awareness Week is

hosted on the Sunshine Academy this year, making it even more affordable.
