Families
Our Work with Parents
It is important that the tools we provide young people to build resilience and self-belief are reinforced not only at school – but also at home.
We know that parents play a crucial role in nurturing a young person's self-esteem and so we encourage schools that we are working with to share what we are doing with the parent community as a whole.
James Shone's inspiring presentations can also be delivered to parents, providing crucial tips on how to support their child during the school years. We recommend that a talk to parents coincide with a talk to pupils since this promotes stimulating conversation at home about these essential topics.
Nurturing Your Child's Strengths
At I Can & I Am, we focus on viewing education as a holistic experience, beyond just academic achievements.
We encourage parents to 'notice' their child's strengths and we provide them with practical guidance on how best to help their children succeed inside and outside the classroom.
Parents are invited to download any of the resources from our website - particularly following a visit by their child to the I Can & I Am bus so that they can fully understand the messages that have been discussed and continue to reference them at home.
