The Bonsai Student will show you the best way to help your child in their school years to become responsible, resilient and ready for the years that follow.

In the same easy-to-read style that made her first book, The Bonsai Child, a bestseller, Dr Locke turns her attention to schooling. She looks at the current environment in parenting and education, and shows the different ways modern parenting trends (aka bonsai parenting) affects students, parents, teachers and schools. Most importantly, she offers practical and easily implemented strategies which have helped the thousands of parents she works with clinically and in her sessions for parents and teachers at schools across Australia and New Zealand.

The Bonsai Student will teach you how to encourage your child's confidence and capability in their schoolwork so they become motivated and responsible at school, and ready for the years that follow.

It gives parents realistic ideas on ways to prepare your child to start primary or high school, turn around the homework situation, get the morning and afternoon routines to run more smoothly, deal with report cards and parent-teacher nights, help your child thrive in Year 12, manage screens without screams, and much more. It even gives you tips on how to help your child plan and prepare appropriately for their post-school university or vocational education and training years. It is an invaluable resource for parents, teachers and everyone working with children in an educational environment.
