Support and encouragement

The presence of a supportive teacher can enhance a student’s ability to better manage stress and build resilience. A strong teacher-student relationship can provide immediate feedback when students have experienced stressful situations and an opportunity for the teacher to intervene early and effectively.

If the behaviour persists despite trying a number of interventions, discuss the student’s situation with a supervisor or member of the learning and wellbeing support staff at your school.
