When the School Report Looks Fine — But You Know Something’s Not Right

You’ll soon be receiving your child’s school report. On the surface, everything might seem “fine.” The grades look okay. The comments are mostly positive.
But deep down, something doesn’t sit right.
Maybe your child is suddenly more anxious about school. Maybe they’ve stopped putting their hand up or dread homework. Maybe their confidence has taken a quiet hit — and you’ve noticed.
The truth is, school reports rarely tell the full story. Teachers often do their best to highlight the positives — and we understand why. But as a parent, you see the full picture. You live it.
And if something feels off, it usually is.
The Hidden Signs a Child Is Struggling
Even if a report doesn’t say “behind” or “below expectations,” your child might still be:
Withdrawing or avoiding certain subjects
Feeling overwhelmed or saying, “I’m just not good at this”
Falling through the cracks — not enough to flag, but still not thriving
These struggles aren’t always obvious in a classroom of 30. But at home, parents see the tension, the tears, or the total shutdown around schoolwork.
And let’s be honest — there’s only so much you can do. You're already juggling work, family life, and trying to stay on top of everything. You care deeply, but you shouldn’t have to carry this alone.
