Starting Secondary School

Michael Carr-Gregg,Sharon Witt

‘We want to give you and your child the best opportunity to thrive in secondary school. By the end of this book you’re going to feel a whole lot more capable of dealing with what Year 7 throws at you.’     

The jump between primary and secondary school marks one of the biggest transitions in a student’s life. It’s the point at which a child leaves the relatively safe cocoon of childhood and enters the wide world of adolescence. For both parents and their children, it can be a huge shock, as they encounter a minefield of serious issues to deal with - everything from peer and study pressures to phones, parties and beyond.      In this invaluable resource for Australian families, bestselling authors Michael Carr-Gregg and Sharon Witt provide all the tools and information you need for entering this turbulent and testing time. With warmth and wisdom, they offer latest advice on the following -     

  • Choosing the right school for you         
  • Settling into secondary school          
  • Homework, study tips and tricks            
  • Coping with stress, anxiety and depression          
  • Social issues such as bullying and friendships          
  • Health and wellbeing, including the importance of sleep and diet          
  • Latest advice on mobile phones and technology

Starting secondary school is a whole lot more complex than it once was, but this invaluable resource will help your family face this major milestone armed with knowledge and confidence.
