Working with Parents of 8-11 Year-olds: A Toolkit for Practitioners by Debi Roker and Julie Shepherd, TSA

This new Toolkit is an essential resource for all those working with parents of ‘pre-teens’, i.e. those aged between 8 and 11, particularly around the move to secondary school. The Toolkit contains a wealth of information, resources and ideas. Topics covered include:

  • What do parents of 8-11 year-olds want?
  • What are the options for working with this group?
  • What training and support is available for workers?
  • What resources are available to support workers, and parents?
  • ‘Hints and tips’ for effective work with parents

This new Toolkit is invaluable for both experienced parenting workers, and those starting to work with this group of parents.
