Students, the future of our nation and the agents of change in our societies, are flourishing and thriving in the educational institutions. They progress through a series of institutions facing changes time to time and year to year in schools, classes, teachers, peers, environment and activities. These changes may either help in developing abilities and skills to deal with the demanding situations and standards or vex or trouble them. Failure to negotiating these challenges can lead to stress and anxiety issues, retardation in educational achievements, school refusal or dropout.
