Why more kids are saying no to school
Manage episode 415086443 series 2455337
In Australia, an increasing number of children are missing school and part of the problem is what has been called school avoidance or refusal.
But families who are struggling say it’s more accurately called ‘school can’t’ because some students experience a stress response that prevents them from getting to the classroom.
Today, Four Corners’ filmmaker Sascha Ettinger-Epstein shares her insights into the issue and what’s working to get children's education back on track.
