Being Bullied and School Refusal 

We know that children who are bullied can suffer self-harm, and they may develop mental health problems like depression and anxiety.  This can result in them having problems adjusting to school, and not doing as well as they potentially could.

The distress bullied children feel can lead to school refusal.  The upset and difficulties this presents for parents, often leads them to withdraw their child from mainstream school.  

When you enrol with Latham Online, our Lead Welfare and Progress Manager will be in personal contact with you.  This gives you the opportunity to make sure that we fully understand the starting point for your child on the journey to exam success.

Online Learning
​with a Heart

At Latham Online we understand that once a decision has been made to take a child out of school alternative  educational provision needs to be found.  

We also understand that children who are anxious, and may still be experiencing cyberbullying, need a sympathetic approach that eases them back to feeling confident in their ability to focus and learn.

Our tutors are all experienced teachers who know that building a child's self-esteem and positive attitudes are the key to educational progress.
