What School Leaders Say
“I see Evidence-Based Parenting Programmes as a value-add to what many schools are trying to achieve so
that more serious problems can be avoided as the child grows older.”
“Triple P Level 2 seminars teach very
‘down-to-earth’ and ‘doable’ stuff that parents
can try out. I’ve personally tried out some of the strategies with
my own children and found them workable.
The tip sheets come in handy too.
71
Triple P - Level 2
I learnt many strategies to handle challenging behaviours
and emotions. I am more patient and can deal with my 3
children more calmly & rationally.– Parent from Clementi Primary School
What ParentsSay
Triple P - Level 3
Definitely benefitted me and my son in dealing with
his gaming issues. It is customized to individual needs.
We are able to work with my son in drawing out his schedule, targets, rewards and consequences. He is also
more receptive to our suggestions now and is
more motivated whenever we approach him in a
positive manner instead of the conventional
parenting method. – Parent from Unity Sec School
