Helping anxious tweens regain calm and feel confident in school
Support for pre-teens 11-12 yrs struggling with school transition anxiety, school worries, emotional overwhelm, or early-stage school refusal.
What Is The Calmer Tweens Programme?
You watched your child transition to secondary school with all the hopes of seeing them grow and excel to their best. Naturally, they were a little anxious to start with, a new environment, new friends and a whole new set of rules.
But you hoped with a little encouragement that they would soon settle in.
Unfortunately, weeks later they seem to be getting more worried about school, maybe even being unable to attend or showing signs of panic when the topic of school comes up.
If this sounds familiar, then the Calmer Tweens Programme for School Anxiety may be the help you have been looking for.
Who is the Calmer Tweens Programme for?
11 -12 year olds that:
have experienced the early signs of anxiety in school
are experiencing intermittent school avoidance
show their anxiety through anger outbursts, withdrawal, or crying or other emotional and physical signs
Parents that:
are unsure how to help their pre-teen in the moments they feel anxious
are worried their anxious tween may continue to struggle to attend school
would like to help their tween feel more confident in themselves so they can face the challenges that come with school and other situations
