How can we help students manage their stress so they achieve their best?
How can we help students manage their stress so they achieve their best?
One of the biggest problems with revision is that even saying the word ‘revise’ causes some pupils to put up emotional barriers and struggle to know what to do. Sometimes their reaction is to put off doing revision and this in the end causes stress. For others, they worry and get stressed about disappointing parents and fail to focus effectively because of it.
As a result some students can become deeply worried about revision, and the latest in a series of reports from MIND says that one British child in ten suffers depression.
SUMO4Schools is a programme which equips students with skills to manage their emotions, thinking and future, and through this can overcome the debilitating issue of stress and anxiety concerning exams. The programme is made up of six inspiring principles which teach the pupils how to create and live a successful life.
The ‘Carpe Diem – Seize the Day’ principle is based on the saying ‘Life rewards actions not intentions’ and it helps pupils to stop, think and reflect on their response to challenges and then teaches them how to move on and take healthy actions. This is why SUMO4Schools has created the SUMO ‘Managing Stress & Revision Day’ which enables the learners to:
Manage their stress to perform their best
Unpack procrastination habits
Move on to develop good study and revision habits
Motivate themselves to fulfil their potential
Create a revision action plan.
