Description:
The Odisha School Education Programme Authority (OSEPA), Government of Odisha, successfully
organised the eighth (8th) session of its webinar series on the theme “Coping with Exam Pressure and
Anxiety”. This session focused on helping students understand exam stress as a normal experience and
equipping them with practical strategies to manage anxiety, overthinking, and performance pressure.
Students of Classes 9 and 10, along with teachers from secondary schools across the state, participated
actively, sharing concerns and questions related to headaches, fear of failure, screen addiction, and
parental expectations. The webinar highlighted the importance of healthy routines, reduced mobile use,
supportive communication from parents and teachers, and simple techniques like breathing exercises to
stay calm and focused.
