What does it mean to have school phobia?

School phobia is when a child or teenager is struggling to attend school due to anxiety. Phobias are a form of anxiety disorder and can range across specific sub-phobias including social anxiety, academic performance anxiety, separation anxiety, and more. School phobia is oftentimes a better term than 'School refusal' because with school phobia, a child may very well want to attend school, be social, and perform well but is unable to do so due to anxiety. School phobia is highly treatable with adjustments in behavior and response to feared situations.
