Growing Your Teenager course

The Growing Your Teenager course is a free course for parents living in the Horsham District with children that are transitioning to secondary school in September.

Delivered with support from Sussex Police and the West Sussex County Council Dedicated Schools Team, the course aims to help parents understand some of the challenges the teenage years present; and provide some useful tips and ideas to help you and your child navigate what can be a challenging time of life.

There are three evening sessions exploring:

• effective communication
• boundary setting
• understanding the teenage brain
• anxiety
• self esteem.

Sessions will also include information around how to keep your young person safe online and in the community.

Information about how to register an interest in the sessions will be sent out via schools towards the end of the Spring Term.
