Can’t Face School (CFS)

Works with international schools across the world to strengthen student engagement, attendance, wellbeing, and successful re-engagement with learning.

We provide evidence-informed professional learning for teachers, counsellors, pastoral leaders, and school leadership teams on topics including school attendance, emotionally based school avoidance, student engagement, and inclusive re-engagement practices.

CFS also partners with schools to review and develop policies, procedures, and whole-school frameworks that align with best practice and support student wellbeing and belonging through the lens of safeguarding.

In addition, we provide direct consultation and support for students and families, helping schools respond effectively to attendance challenges while fostering positive, collaborative partnerships between home and school.
