parent workshops

The Life Skills Company™ very much enjoys the opportunity to bring home and school life together. Working with parents has a positive impact on the parent, the child/teenager and the school. We tailor workshops to the needs of a school; the two most popular in-school workshops for parents are:

Getting the best out of me and my child/teenager

This workshop helps parents to easily understand their own personality, the personality of their child/teenager and how best to work together/communicate! It’s based on a human behavioural model which came out of Harvard University but don’t worry, the evening will be fun and interactive. Parents leave with easy to use techniques to help them to have a greater understanding of themselves and their children.

Maximising success in study and revision

This workshop helps parents to support and guide their son/daughter in their learning and study. The topics are usually tailored to the needs of the school; they typically include topics like (a) how to handle distractions (b) how to help with learning/studying/revision, and (c) how to reduce anxiety. Again it’s fun, interactive and informative.

We normally encourage the timing to be something like 7.00pm refreshments for 7.30pm – 9.00pm and use a large space to enable us to move people around a little! We can provide a flyer for you to use to encourage parents to sign up in advance. Please contact us to discuss your needs.
