'Year of school refusal': 2024 sees rise in homeschooling

Child and Adolescent Psychologist Clare Rowe says there is a “rise in homeschooling”. Ms Rowe told Sky News host Chris Kenny 2024 will be the “year of school refusal”. “My office is inundated at the moment with calls from parents who cannot get their child out of bed, into the car and to school. “COVID certainly exposed I think the failing inadequacies and failing teaching methods of the school system. “And that’s been going on for 10 to 15 years.”
