PRE-ORDER NOW - Published: 14/04/2026
For some students, school isn't a place of growth and opportunity-it's a source of overwhelming anxiety and distress. Behind every empty desk lies a complex story of a child who often feels unseen, unheard, and disconnected from the school community. This illuminating book reveals the hidden world of school-avoidant students through an attachment-theory lens. These aren't simply "truant" children making defiant choices-they're young people whose emotional dysregulation has led them to withdraw as a survival strategy. Drawing from extensive research and real-life cases, this volume offers deep insights into the psychology of school avoidance, providing practical strategies that honor student autonomy and self-determination, along with inspiring stories of successful re-engagement and healing. Whether you're a concerned parent, dedicated educator, or school mental health professional, this guide provides a roadmap for reconnection. By understanding the true nature of school avoidance, we can build the supportive environments these students need to return to learning with dignity and hope.Binding: Paperback / softback
