The rise in children admitted to hospital for mental health issues, such as self-harm and eating disorders, highlights the growing pressures young people face today (The Times, 2025). These statistics reflect real families managing challenges that are complex and often overwhelming.
At Enjoy Education, we’ve seen how mental health struggles can intersect with education, adding further stress to families. In these moments, it’s important to focus on creating opportunities for support rather than solutions that feel like additional burdens. A child struggling emotionally may not thrive in a traditional school setting, but they can flourish in a personalised learning environment that prioritises their well-being.
For many parents, the question isn’t about doing everything perfectly but about finding ways to support their child in a compassionate and manageable way. Collaboration—with educators, therapists, and specialists—can make all the difference in crafting a plan that supports emotional recovery and academic growth.
Bespoke Education as a Supportive Path
When traditional schooling becomes overwhelming, tailored educational programmes can provide relief. At Enjoy Education, our bespoke solutions—whether homeschooling or one-to-one tuition—focus on creating an environment where children can learn at their own pace.
Our tutors work closely with families to reduce pressure, offering consistent and empathetic support. Beyond academic achievement, they focus on building confidence and resilience, helping children rediscover the joy of learning in a way that aligns with their personal needs.
