Teachers spend many hours with the children in their care and are well placed to notice if a child is struggling. To support a child, it’s advisable for the teacher to liaise with parents to share observations and to understand the situation at home. Clinical psychologist Dr Bettina Hohnen explains how best to encourage the child to share their worries.
