When Colours Don’t Fly

Dr Anasuya Jegathesan, Counsellor

When Colours Don’t Fly

In November, we saw many school children break down, devastated over their less-than perfect string of A’s for UPSR. With PT3 results due to be out next week, will we be seeing similar reactions from our children? Are we putting too much emphasis on academic success? We speak to counsellor Dr Anasuya Jegathesan about helping children and youths to manage expectations and to deal with success and failure healthily.
