Parenting Scheme

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.

Submission dates

Details of submission deadlines for 2022 will be available soon.
