3 part programme on Parenting: Supporting your child to build healthy friendships and relationships
Part 1 will be ‘Supporting your Child to Build Healthy Friendships and Relationships’. Feedback from parents tells us that in recent months since returning to school children are struggling to make and maintain friendships as a lot of them are quite anxious, so this session will give practical skills about forming friendships and how to build their confidence and self-esteem etc.
Part 2 will focus on communications skills, Active Listening, how to have those ‘difficult’ conversations etc.
Part 3 will focus on ‘Making the Big Talk many Small Talks’ talking to your child about Relationships and Sexuality but parents should now have the skills to approach this topic with more confidence
All 3 sessions will link to the RSE/SPHE curriculum throughout the sessions so that parents know what is being taught in school and can work in partnership with them.
This module helps parents have a better knowledge of Relationships and Sexuality Education (RSE) so that they can talk to their children and foster their children's self esteem and decision making skills in this important area of their lives. The sessions mirror the curriculum taught in schools.
This module is on offer to groups of parents and is delivered in individual schools or via zoom.
This programme is funded by the Sexual Health Crisis Pregnancy Programme
