How do we prepare children for the leap into “big school” — emotionally, socially and academically? Rebecca Cregan from Horizon International School shares practical ways parents can ease anxiety and build confidence before the school year begins.
We also hear from Chantelle Phillips of Arabian Ranches Primary School on why shrinking attention spans and too much screen time may be affecting children more than we realise — and why adults might be part of the problem too.
Plus, Tyler Edmonds explains why he brought the School of Popular Music from Guernsey to Dubai, using singing, instruments and pop music to help kids build confidence and express themselves. And finally, we dive into a unique scuba camp for all ages that’s helping children grow braver, more independent and adventurous.
