Do you like school?

Schools can help you to have a good life in the future, but lots of children hate schools. So let’s talk about what to do when you don’t like it.

If you don’t like your school, find out why at first. Perhaps because a child you don’t like wants to hang around with you. Or maybe you can’t get along well with your teacher. You might feel worried that you don’t have enough friends.

Sometimes it’s a problem with your school work. Maybe the work is too easy and you get bored. Or maybe the work is too hard, or you don’t feel yourself as smart as the other kids.

When you know why you don’t like your school, you can take steps to make things better. You can try this:

Make a list of the things you don’t like about school.

See what you can change on the list of the things you don’t like and change it.

Now, would you feel less lonely if you made one new friend or helped someone else? Would you feel even better?

Perhaps you can’t change everything on your “don’t like” list. But that’s OK. Try to change and you might like your school gradually.
