Programme Information

The School runs a Parenting Scheme to help Stage 1 students settle into University life. The scheme is a great opportunity to gain experience and develop a range of key skills.

This includes:

communication and presentation skills
organisation and time planning skills
working with people from different cultural and socio-economic backgrounds

Parent support

The parent will work with a small group of Stage 1 students.

This will involve helping students when they need:

support
someone to listen
someone to discuss their options with where appropriate
knowledge about where to get specialist advice and help

Parents will receive thorough training and you'll receive a certificate. Your Higher Education Achievement Report (HEAR) will also record your participation.

Skills

The skills required to be a parent are:

empathy
respect for others
a commitment to helping others
the ability to interact with a variety of people
willingness to accept standards of ethical conduct such as confidentiality
good organisation skills

Students in their second and third year of University are welcome to apply to become a parent. You can make friends from around the world and develop your skills.

If you're interested in becoming a parent please contact steph.patterson@ncl.ac.uk for further details.
