KOOTH - Easter & Exams Update 2026

Here’s a selection of resources to help you support your community during this time and remind them we’re here over Easter. Access the full toolkit here

It is important to remind your young people that:

• There are ways to manage feelings of stress or worry during exam season, visit the Exam stress calm zone.
• Exams don't define who they are, or measure everything, see our popular article 10 things standard exams don't measure.
• Self care is important. Help them tackle feelings of exam overwhelm with our Self care bingo card.
• There’s tips on navigating exams and big changes in our Exam stress and managing change video.

For families we have:

• Guidance on supporting your child through exam stress.

How you can help your young people:

• Raise awareness of Kooth’s free wellbeing support by displaying the exam support poster.
• Use this form to book an exam stress or transition-themed talk to introduce your young people to Kooth’s safe, anonymous community. You can also order free print materials and arrange staff training on Kooth and how digital mental health support works.

Please remember we are here over the Easter holidays. Our BACP-accredited digital service provides free, safe, and anonymous support with no waiting lists or referrals needed. Live chat opening hours remain the same: 12pm- 10pm on weekdays and 6pm- 10pm on weekends. All other parts of the platform including the journal and goal setting features, wellbeing articles, forums and messaging service are available 24/7.
