Stress at school is common, and it's easy to think that

constant pressure is normal. The truth is stress can

have a serious impact on your physical and mental
health.
- Poor sleep Schedule
Not getting enough sleep makes it difficult for students
to concentrate and learn effectively. This can lead to
feelings of stress for your child when he or she isn’t
able to perform well in class or on assignments. In fact,
studies have shown that students who don’t get the
required 8-10 hours of sleep each night are more likely
to feel stressed than students who do.
- Find a hobby
If you don’t already, find something you enjoy doing
which is completely separate from your school or work
life. Ideally, take on a creative project or learn a new
skill is perfect. Not only will this help take your mind off
from what you’re worrying about, it will also give you a
sense of purpose and something to aim for.
- Get regular exercise
Regular exercise has been shown to reduce stress,
anxiety and depression. We’re not just talking about the
occasional game of footie or stroll around the park. The
NHS says you need to get about one hundred and fifty
minutes of physical exercise every week. It doesn’t
have to be a sport – you could walk, run, swim or even
do some gardening – the more varied, the better.
