Signs to look out for and how to help during the pandemic
As schools across the UK and Ireland opened again to all pupils this autumn, educators and parents aren’t simply concerned about gaps in learning. They are also worried about students’ well-being and mental health as teachers and students adapt to new classroom practices and learn to live with the uncertainty of possible isolation and lockdowns. Supporting students’ is key as concern around young people’s resilience rises. This article considers signs to look out for in students and ways for teachers to start a conversation around well-being with students, and includes insight from an educational psychologist.
