Frequent school changes can leave invisible yet lasting imprints on a student’s emotional and psychological well-being. This study explores how repeated transitions—driven by parental transfers, migration, divorce, or displacement—shape identity, resilience, and learning continuity. Through eight representative case profiles from Indian and international contexts, including my own firsthand experience of having changed ten schools, this paper examines both the challenges and positive adaptations linked with educational mobility. Findings highlight that while school transitions often disrupt stability, they can also cultivate resilience, adaptability, and emotional intelligence when supported effectively by families and schools.
