This can't be my responsibility: it must be yours! An analysis of a reintegration programme for a school refuser.

Kath Tansey, who works for SENSS (County Durham's integrated support service), and coordinates the Home and Hospital Teching Service in Mid-Durham, discusses some of the issues arising from a case study of a child exhibiting a reluctance to attend school. She emphasises the importance of not overlooking the needs of such pupils and outlines some interesting legislative changes in a field which has often remained on the fringes of LEA provision.
