Parent support workshops

Hove Park School • February 1, 2021

An opportunity to reflect on parenting and supporting young people in these uncertain times.

Dear Parents/Carer,


Hove Park School have been thinking of their parent population and how they can best support you all in such uncertain times. The school recognises how hard this is for parents, with GCSE exams being cancelled and dealing with young adults in their home environments day after day whilst also juggling their existing demands.


We have partnered with an external consultancy, True Reflection Partnership who specialise in Coaching and Counselling Services, to see how we best offer our parents and carers an opportunity to reflect in a safe environment.


We have created sessions that will enable parents to share how they are feeling in a network with other parents only. The sessions are interactive, supportive and aim to help navigate the complexity of being at home constantly, home schooling in the same environments with an opportunity to download their thoughts in a confidential space and group. No judgement, just a place to chat freely.


In developing these sessions we recognised the unique challenges faced by students in Year 11 and have dedicated 2 sessions to allow parents and carers to explore supporting young people who are experiencing unprecedented uncertainty.


Children are not allowed to attend the sessions and there will be no teaching staff.

The main content of the session will cover:


  • An opportunity to reflect on how home life is going within their own environments, what are the difficult conversations with their children and how are the parents feeling?
  • An opportunity to share any concerns they may have with their young adults.
  • Offer supportive measures for talking to young adults. How to listen without reaction or judgement.
  • The sessions will be run by Clare Sandman, Trainee Psychotherapist and Paul Adams, Accredited Performance & Team Coach.
  • Each session will start at 8pm for an hour. Maximum of 15 adults per session and will be run on MS TEAMS, you can sign up to one of the events using the links below.

Today, we had visitors in school supporting our German studies. The poet and polyglot Sophie Lau worked with Year 9 students of German on a poem written and delivered by a famous German singer, Julia Englemann. The workshops developed translation skills with students putting their skills into practice writing their own poems. The visit also included drop-ins into classes by Pauline Wick of the Goethe-Institut London. This work with the Goethe Institut is core to the aims of our Adur Language Hub, aiming to promote the positive aspects of language acquisition in school and to promote German as a language key to business and career possibilities.
