As the 2025 academic year draws to a close, Saving Grace Education Group (SGEG) encourages parents nationwide to reflect on one essential question:
How did school make your child feel this year?
Emotional wellbeing matters too
Report cards reveal academic progress, but SGEG emphasises that emotional wellbeing is equally important in understanding a child’s true school experience.
Children are naturally honest. They openly talk about environments that inspire them, motivate them, and bring out their best. When a school environment nurtures confidence, creativity, and a sense of belonging, children will always have something positive to share.
However, when children consistently respond with short phrases like “fine”, “okay”, or “I don’t know”, it may indicate that the school environment did not inspire or support them.
Silence — or having “no opinion” about a place where they spend most of their time — often speaks louder than words. It can be a sign of emotional disconnection, lack of support, or feeling unseen in the classroom.
Why this reflection matters
Year-end offers parents the perfect opportunity to evaluate whether their chosen school aligned with the educational vision they had for their child. This includes examining whether the school environment:
- Encouraged motivation and independence
- Built confidence
- Supported emotional wellbeing
- Stimulated creativity and curiosity
Or whether it led to:
- Anxiety
- Withdrawal
- Frustration
- A decline in academic interest
- Demotivation
What parents reported in 2025
SGEG has seen a rise in enquiries from families whose children faced challenges in traditional schooling environments this year. Parents commonly reported:
- Academic underperformance
- Overcrowded classrooms
- Social pressure or bullying
- Loss of motivation
- Anxiety or mood changes
- Reluctance to attend school
