School anxiety – Charlie’s story
Relentless testing and exams, online bullying through social media, peer pressure – it’s no wonder our children are feeling increased levels of anxiety. For some children this pressure is too much and can result in them feeling extremely anxious about going to school. Becoming withdrawn and tearful, refusing to participate in activities they’d previously enjoyed, distancing from friends, feeling physically ill. The effects of school anxiety are extensive and impact on the whole family. For many children with extreme anxiety, homeschooling can provide an alternative method of learning away from the challenges they face in mainstream schooling.
