Surviving school

Everyone has a different experience of school. You may love it or hate it. Some people do well while some struggle.

One of the major problems within schools is bullying. It’s hard to see eye to eye with everyone in your school, and most people face difficult times with their classmates. If you’re going through it,  tell someone.

Perhaps the biggest cause of distress at school is exams – revising for them, sitting them and waiting for the results. Each of these periods can be stressful, but following a few key tips will keep you on track.

Sometimes difficulties at school don’t have anything to do with bullying or exams. If you don’t feel comfortable raising certain issuess with your family or teachers, talk to a school mentor.
