How Can Schools Support Coping Skills in Students?
Schools can also play a pivotal role in supporting the development of coping skills:
- Incorporating Social-Emotional Learning (SEL): Programs that focus on SEL can teach students essential skills for managing emotions, setting goals, and establishing positive relationships. - Providing Counseling Services: Access to school counselors can give students a safe space to discuss their feelings and receive guidance. - Creating a Supportive Environment: A positive school climate where students feel safe and valued can significantly reduce stress and anxiety.
