It’s emotional too.
The quiet pressure.
The comparisons.
The “are we doing enough?” thoughts.
And children feel it.
Some withdraw.
Some resist.
Some panic.
It doesn’t have to feel like a two-year emergency.
On 27th March at 7:30 pm, we’re running a practical parent session- Handle the 11+ Stress.
Charlotte Watson, who specialises in children’s mental health, will guide the session. I’ll be there too, supporting from a parent mentor perspective.
We’ll talk about how to reduce pressure at home without lowering standards, what to say when your child shuts down, and how to protect confidence during preparation.
