How to support your child to succeed

We know that the transition from school to college can be a challenge for students and their families.

It’s a big change in responsibility and it can feel hard to get the balance of wanting to support your child and letting them be independent. We’re here to support you. And you can trust that if there is a problem at college, we will let you know.

We believe it’s important to talk about the big issues that affect our students in an open and honest way. To help you feel confident with supporting your child in this phase of education we run a number of parent information events which cover things such as wellbeing and mental health, revision and exam anxiety. 

If you’re worried about your child, we encourage you to get in touch so we can help. Email is the best way to contact us – send it to: studentsupport@connell.ac.uk
