Student Wellbeing
The physical impact of the pandemic has mostly spared our young people, however as the nation remains to be on alert and in various stages of lockdown, restrictions continue to be mandated.
|
As hard as it is being a young person today, it can be difficult being the parent of one. It has been reported that many parents are struggling to keep their child's mental health afloat, often proving it is difficult to juggle parenting responsibilities whilst at the same time providing much needed emotional support for their children.
|
Unlike the coronavirus itself, the emotional impact of the pandemic cannot be vaccinated away. Psychologists are seeing more depression and anxiety across all age groups, and schools and parents are dealing with these issues too.
|
SchoolTV created a report that explains the current state of youth mental health in the COVID-19 era and offers guidance on how to best support young people today.
|
If this Special Report raises any concerns for you, a loved one or the wellbeing of your child, please seek medical or professional help.
