What to say and do if your child is disappointed with their A level results.
Aug 13, 2025When A-Level results don’t go to plan, it can feel like the end of the world for a young person.
In this video, I share how you can support your child through the immediate emotional fallout—helping them feel heard, calmer, and ready to start thinking about their next steps. You’ll also hear how to reassure them that this is just one moment in a much bigger story, and that there are more options ahead than they might realise right now.
If you’re not always sure what to say or do when your child goes into fight, flight, or freeze before school, you’re not alone. I’ve created a free guide that walks you through simple, practical steps to help bring your child back to calm. You can download it here and keep it handy for those tricky mornings.
