Six-week programme

Parent Gym is a programme made up of six two-hour sessions, with ‘missions’ to complete between sessions. Each programme has up to twenty parents and one Parent Gym coach.

The Parent Gym programme has been designed by leading psychologists, drawing on parenting research. All sessions are designed to be highly interactive and participative.

Parent Gym engages parents in a fun process that opens their eyes and minds to new ways of parenting, and supports them to ‘give it a go back at home’. This approach not only lets the techniques speak for themselves, it also builds parents’ confidence in themselves and strengthens their family relationships in the process.

Coming to Parent Gym was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The content of the course was spot on. As a parent there are always things to learn or be reminded of, and to me that is exactly what Parent Gym is about- it gave me the tools to make life easier. Now when I want to implement a rule or find an activity to do with him I consult my Parent Gym Magazines. To all parents who are thinking of joining please do as it's very rewarding. I cannot believe I completed the course with an 11 week old baby in tow- that's how comfortable and inclusive Parent Gym was. And now, even though the course is finished, the group still meets. Thank you all for putting together such a wonderful programme.

The Parent Gym programme is presented in an accessible, positive way that is quite unlike most school-based interventions. As a result, we have a stronger parent community, in which families are confident and able to support their children’s learning and wellbeing.

Parent Gym has been a great success in our school. All of the parents who joined on the first week, completed the full programme, it was wonderful that there were no drop outs part way through. Vicky, the coach, was great - very organised and approachable. She clearly built up a good rapport with the parents. The parents who attended reported to have learned a lot, and made good friends along the way. They will be meeting monthly to keep in touch and talk about what they learned through Parent Gym. We would recommend the programme to other schools, it's a great way to bring parents together and support them in parenting their children.
