Has anyone had a social services assessment for school avoidance?

Hi everyone. Has anyone had experience of this? I have 4 children, one of which has Emotionally Based school avoidance. She hasnt been to school since last October and lots of things have been tried. My other 3 children go to school fine. She is almost 11 and to start high school in September. Her current school have referred this to social services so Im expecting an assessment! I have lots of logs and paper trails with everything that I have tried to get her there and I have always kept the school fully updated with everything and evidence. Has anyone ever had an assessment done before? Thanks

Absolutely not. My other 3 go to school fine, I had to quit my job which I loved end of last year because of DD being at home with her school anxiety

Can you go in with her? And stay I mean? Like her 1-1. I had anxiety/school refusal as a child. I was so much better when my mum stayed.
