Finding Connection with Your Teen During GCSE’s

Finding Connection with Your Teen During GCSE’s

by | Apr 10, 2025 |

In the coming months, thousands of teenagers across the UK will sit their GCSEs. It’s the culmination of years of schoolwork and, for many, a gateway to the next stage of life. But for some young people, it doesn’t feel like that at all.  Instead, exam season can bring fear, anxiety, pressure, and conflict—especially at home.
Many parents are finding themselves in daily battles. Conversations about revision turn into shouting matches. Doors slammed. Tears shed. Some young people may even tip into behaviour that feels unacceptable or unsafe—verbal and physical aggression, or complete withdrawal.
At Capa First Response, we work with families every day who are walking this exact path. And we want you to know this: there is nothing wrong with your parenting. This is hard. For all of you.

Information and the video of the fantastic session from Eliza Fricker. In the video you can hear Eliza talk through her family’s experience with school avoidance, PDA and how it brought her to start illustrating and writing books for parents/carers and for young  people themselves. She shares the story behind ‘Can’t not Won’t’ – the book that became a Sunday Times Bestseller.
