PARENTS WORKSHOPS

A Parents Information Workshop is provided each term at the Unity Centre. Each session has a specific focus relevant to Parents/ Carers of children with SEN. We can provide also provide one or a combination of workshops in schools on request, dates and times are negotiable.

Each workshop has specific aims, the overall aim of the programme of workshops is to enable parents/carers to take an active and informed role in their child’s education. The workshops include information, practical strategies/tools to use, and activities providing an opportunity to develop personal skills.

For example the Praise and Play Workshop is very practical and looks at using play, praise and rewards with pre school and primary aged children. It would be suitable for any parent interested in relationship building between them and their child.

The range of workshops offered are:

  • Moving from Pre-School to School
  • Moving from Primary school to Secondary
  • Getting ready to leave school
  • Bullying
  • Inclusion

The last Parents Information Workshop was held on Growing and Learning About Sexual Health.

Feedback from parents attending the workshops show that they found them informative and friendly, they now feel better equipped to cope with the issues discussed and they value the opportunity to share experiences.
