When a child has problematic anxiety, their prolonged fear and worry can negatively affect how they function academically and socially; their engagement with people and activities will be negatively impacted. Supporting children who exhibit anxious behaviours can leave teachers feeling overwhelmed, unprepared, and unsure of how to respond. Does this sound familiar?
