Scolionophobia is the fear of school. Most kids tend to get this phobia because they fear leaving their parents and the security of being home to go to school.

Scolionophobia is considered to be a specific phobia, which is discussed on the Phobia Types page. Scolionophobia is also known as Scholionophobia and related to Didaskaleinophobia (fear of going to school).

It is generally accepted that phobias arise from a combination of external events (i.e. traumatic events) and internal predispositions (i.e. heredity or genetics). Many specific phobias can be traced back to a specific triggering event, usually a traumatic experience at an early age. Social phobias and agoraphobia have more complex causes that are not entirely known at this time.

It is believed that heredity, genetics, and brain chemistry combine with life-experiences to play a major role in the development of phobias. As with any phobia, the symptoms vary by person depending on their level of fear.

The most common symptoms of phobias are trembling, chest pains, heart palpitations, elevated blood pressure, shortness of breath, rapid speech or inability to speak, dry mouth, upset stomach, nausea, and hot or cold flashes.
