Live Lessons and a Lucrative SChool

[leyos123]

My child is in secondary school and has not been taking live lessons due to the fact that she doesn't feel comfortable within them, however she has been completing all of the work and more that has been set out for her.
The school called and said that she has to do live lessons, trying to force her into doing something she doesn't feel comfortable doing due to a history of bullying and her being quite insecure.
She obviously doesn't want to do them and the school have been thretneing to get social services involved, is this right and is this legal for them to do?

The school will naturally have safeguarding concerns if she hasn't been seen for a while, hence the mention of SS.
Does she have any SEND?

I'm trying to work out what 'lucrative' is a likely typo for in the title, as it's not related to the post. Could you let us know? (in case it's important)

If a school is beginning to mention the need to inviove social services, then I suspect there may be more background needed here. It's not just a case of absenteeism/non-participation (as that would be EWO)

Online lessons are thoroughly risk assessed - you can't just bunk off because you dint feel comfortable. If there is a particular factor that is a current problem, you need to be in dialogue with the school about it, with aim of regularising your DD's participation. How long has this been going on?

I think you need to be a little harsher with your DD. Start with her joining with her camera and microphone off and build it up. It is hard but it is a fear thing and avoiding it isn't going to help.

The school probably just mean her attendance and engagement is not good. Does she submit the work to her school so they know she is doing it even if not in the lessons?

Perhaps she is missing bits because of not being in the lesson so not fully understanding tasks?

With all due respect, we all have to do things in life we'd rather not, things we are uncomfortable with and things we plainly are terrified of, it's called, well, life.
You need to help your DD build resilience, allowing her to drop everything she is uncomfortable with is setting her up for a massive shock once she needs to get on with her life by herself.

Yes she needs to do the live lessons. What's so uncomfortable about them!?

Ask for a vulnerable child place for her to attend full time. She will meet the criteria
