Support for School Avoidance and EBSNA

Many families come to home education following a period of school-based anxiety or emotionally based school non-attendance (EBSNA). At Bettering Youth, we understand that this can feel overwhelming.

Our approach always brings together academic support and wellbeing, while also working collaboratively with schools when appropriate — reducing stress for both parent and child.

To help families navigating EBSNA, we’ve shared insights and strategies on the Mindful Toolbox Podcast. Here are a few episodes you might find useful:

Ep. 2 – Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance: How to Recognise It and Respond

This episode is a compassionate and practical guide for families dealing with the painful reality of school avoidance. You’ll learn:

What EBSNA really looks like beyond labels or assumptions.
Why the child’s behaviour may be rooted in distress, not defiance.
Gentle, strength-based strategies you can use today to reduce pressure and repair connection.

Includes a downloadable checklist to help you reflect, reframe, and respond with confidence.

Ep. 3: What Anxiety Actually Looks Like and How to Help Your Child Cope

This episode unpacks the hidden face of anxiety—stomach aches, meltdowns, rage—and its impact on home life and school. Inside, you’ll discover:

A warm, relatable explanation of how anxiety manifests in kids.
Simple, science-backed tools like the “Flip-the-Lid” model to connect with your child’s experience.
An actionable 3-layer toolbox—covering body, mind, and environment—that works in everyday moments.
You’ll leave feeling seen, equipped, and more connected.

Ep. 5: Raising Resilient Teens: How to Help Your Child Bounce Back After a Setback

Perfect for teens who withdraw after a failure or avoid challenge altogether. In this episode, you’ll explore:

What real resilience looks like—not grit or toughing it out, but the emotional strength to try again.
How to shift from “fixing” your child to being a secure base for growth.
Practical invitations to cultivate resilience: embrace vulnerability, reframe mistakes, and build emotional safety.
It's a gentle but powerful reminder: your child—and you—are not broken.

Home Education Case Studies

We understand that home education can look different for every family. This is why our experienced classroom teachers are the perfect choice for your child's tutor!

Our passion for project based learning and our belief that each child deserves to be taught in a way that inspires them allows us to tailor each lesson to your child and their learning goals.

Here are just some of incredible learning programmes we've created for our home schooling families:

Year 5 and 6 maths

The M* family were looking for a home tuition programme that would allow both their sons to learn Maths in a way that was engaging, memorable, and tailored to each of them. Plus, we needed to bare in mind that in a few years time they want to write their GCSEs.

We created a year long plan that allowed us to cover the core Keystage 2 curriculum in a way that explored real world applications.

As a celebration of their progress and a final review before summer holidays, the boys engaged in a 6 week project to build their own bakery business plan. It included everything from converting measurements, to geometry, algebra and price structures. PLUS! The added bonus of market research and advertising skills.

Year 6 Maths/Business Programme

The W* family were looking for a unique home education programme that would take into account their daughter's dyscalculia and support her vision for launching a business!

We created a programme that covered off core concepts required to support her vision of launching a business. Our sessions were short and sharp. At one point, they even included pre-recorded sessions that could be paused and reviewed as many times as necessary.

The W* family rejoiced not only in their daughter's growing appreciation and confidence around numbers, but also her confidence in creating a business plan.

Year 2 English creative Writing

Over the Summer, the P* family were traveling to Spain but wanted a programme that would support their son's english writing.

We created a folder with fun activities and games that the family could play while on holiday that encouraged reading and writing.

This was coupled with weekly online sessions to support creative writing in a more formal setting.

The family are pleased with their son's progress and have already noticed an increased tolerance to writing with detail.
