Why do we offer Parent GYm?
We believe that our parents should have the opportunity to have support with developing parenting skills. We believe that our school should help to facilitate groups and sessions to achieve this. We believe that stronger parenting will ultimately lead to happier pupils and better performance in school... as well as a happier home!
How does Parent Gym work?
Parent Gym is a course of six 2hour workshops with ‘missions’ to complete in between each one. Each ‘gym’ has up to 20 parents and one Parent Gym Coach. Each week’s session is devoted to a different topic and comes with its own unique Parent Gym magazine packed with practical tips.
What is covered in the sessions?
The highly participative sessions explore a vast range of questions such as "how can I get my child to open up?", "how can I resolve family disagreements in a positive way" or how can I build my child's resilience"
How do I sign up?
If you would like to take part in these sessions, please see Miss Taylor (EYFS Lead) or Mrs Taylor (Office Manager) to sign up for the introductory session.
In the last session 100% of the parents involved strongly agreed that it had improved their confidence. 100% strongly agreed that they felt better able to deal with challenging situations calmly. 100% of parents involved felt that the group had helped them to build stronger relationships with other parents that would empower them in the future.
