Abstract
In this article, we explore (a) why it is important to study educational and mental health issues simultaneously, (b) why academic problems and particular manifestations of emotional distress co-occur in some children, and (c) how the context of school may influence both academic and emotional outcomes in children. We conclude with recommendations for future research on schooling and mental health issues.
