Back to school is approaching fast; is your child ready? This time of year can be both exciting and challenging.  Is your child excited or dreading their first day of school?

The return to school is a very significant event in a child’s life. It represents a time of change and new beginnings for students. Some children look forward to it; a new year means new clothes, new supplies, new teachers, and reuniting with old friends.

For other children this transition may be extremely difficult and challenging to navigate. They feel very anxious, stressed, and fearful about the new school year because they anticipate the academic and social challenges they struggled with in previous years. Your child may have difficulty coping with academic expectations, especially as the workload increases as they get older. Many children may not believe they have the ability to learn more difficult material or that they will be able to handle this heavier workload.

They may devlop anxiety and stress about a number of things, such as making new friends, peer pressure, speaking up in a new class, not feeling good enough to succeed in certain subjects, as well as other personal challenges. These feelings not only affect their school performance but can also have a negative impact on all aspects of their life while also negatively affecting family dynamics.
