Problem solving to help manage worries

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are enjoying the lovely weather; it is very hot here in school!!

As we move through this challenging time, I thought this poster may be of help to you. It suggests steps to manage any worries you may have. First by identifying the worry, then thinking of as many solutions. Next, seeing the pros and cons of the solutions and choose the best one for you. Then, plan what you will do and seek support to put the action plan into place. Finally, review the plan and identify what went well. As we move closer to transition for the children in school, this could be a strategy you use if your child has a worry. As adults, it could also be a good tool for us to use. I hope you find it useful.

Take care everyone, enjoy the weekend and we’ll chat again next week.
