Back to School - Helping your teen nail senior school

There is so much emphasis on the last two years of high school, and not all of it is good! Some teenagers become highly anxious and are weighed down by pressure to get top marks for university – while others create stress for us parents when they can’t seem to get motivated, stay organised or manage their time.     Bec Sparrow is joined by Claire Eaton, a youth coach and author of Hello High School. Together they discuss strategies for getting study ready, planning, motivating teens and what to do when the pressure to achieve becomes too much.   The advice in this podcast is general and does not consider your personal situation. If you require further advice specific to your needs, please consult a professional.  If the discussion around helping kids study when they have ADHD has resonated with you, we have a few different episodes you might like to listen to on supporting neurodiverse kids.  Parenting children with ADHD How to help children with dyslexia Parenting Autistic Kids
