School Can't Australia was formed in 2014. Since then members of the group have been sharing their lived experience with each other. We have struggled together to understand our children's distress and over 10 years thousands of parents have shared what has worked and what hasn't with each other. We have shared resources and insights. We have held space and provided mutual support. We have conducted research within our group, and written submissions to government seeking to share our perspectives. We have advocated, we have collaborated and together we have played a significant role in changing narratives about school attendance difficulties.
Attendance is FREE.
