Back to School

Many children are going back to school in September, some for the first time in several months. It’s natural
for children to feel a bit anxious about starting a new school year. Those feelings are likely to be heightened
after so long off, especially if the school experience is different to what they remember.

‘Helping your Child with Fears and Worries’ by Cathy
Creswell and Lucy Willetts is definitely worth a read.
The authors are clinical psychologists who specialise
in supporting children and young people. The book
is packed with practical advice on helping children
to deal with fears, worries and anxiety. It covers
everything from phobias to separation anxiety. And
it’s aimed at parents, so is not written like a medical
textbook!

The following websites also have lots of resources and
information you might find useful:

Extra support
All children feel anxious and worried sometimes.
However, up to 15% of children experience anxiety
disorders, which can stop them enjoying day-to-day
life and lead to more long-term issues. So, if your
child is struggling and you’re worried, don’t be afraid
to ask for help. Your child’s school may be able to
offer advice. It’s also worth speaking to your GP to
see if your child can be referred for extra support.

Based in Dean Clough, this fab restaurant had the genius idea

shall arrive. It’ll cost you £21 per person plus booze, which is
thoroughly reasonable to say that you won’t need to eat for 3
weeks afterwards.” Tables from 6pm.
