Posted on by Dr. Humaira Sikander

It can be frustrating and concerning when your child doesn’t seem to enjoy school. However, there are several things that you can do to help your child overcome this issue and start to enjoy their time in school.

  1. Communicate with your child: The first step in addressing your child’s dislike of school is to talk to them and try to understand what is causing the problem. Ask open-ended questions and listen actively to their answers. This will help you to identify the specific issues that are causing your child to dislike school, such as difficulty with a particular subject, problems with a teacher or classmates, or feeling overwhelmed by the workload.
  2. Communicate with the school: Once you have a better understanding of the problem, it is important to communicate with your child’s school. Talk to the teacher and school staff to get their perspective on the situation and to find out what steps they are taking to help your child.
  3. Encourage extra help: If your child is struggling with a particular subject, encourage them to get extra help. This could include after-school tutoring, working with a learning specialist or getting help from a parent or older sibling.
  4. Help your child to develop a positive attitude: Encourage your child to think positively about school and to see it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Help your child to set goals and to focus on the aspects of school that they enjoy.
  5. Help your child to develop social skills: Help your child to develop social skills and to form positive relationships with their classmates. Encourage your child to participate in extracurricular activities and to join clubs or groups that align with their interests.
  6. Work on building independence: Encourage your child to be more independent and to take ownership of their learning. Help your child to develop study skills, time management techniques and to become more organized.
  7. Seek Professional help: If your child is still struggling with their dislike of school despite your efforts, it may be helpful to seek professional help. A therapist or counselor can help your child to develop coping strategies and to address any underlying emotional or psychological issues.
  8. Address any underlying issues: Sometimes, children may dislike school because of underlying issues such as anxiety, depression or learning disorders. It’s important to address these issues and provide the necessary support for your child.
  9. Be patient and persistent: Changing a child’s attitude towards school can take time and patience. Keep encouraging your child and be persistent in your efforts. Show them that you care and that you’re willing to help them through this tough time.

It’s important to remember that every child is different and may have different reasons for not liking school. It’s also important to remember that sometimes, children may not be able to express their feelings properly, so be patient and try to understand where they’re coming from. By working together with your child, the school and any professional help, you can help your child overcome their dislike of school and start to enjoy their time in the classroom.
