STAND – Parents As Protectors

Welcome to : STAND parents as protectors..

This warm, supportive program is designed especially for caring parents, carers and guardians like you.

Your journey here is all about empowerment – helping you to , and in your child’s life. We know that keeping children safe comes from connection, awareness, and trust, not fear.
This course will help you reconnect with your instincts and build the confidence to protect your children and your family.

We begin with a live, interactive WELCOME session scheduled for Friday, 23rd May – 18.00 -19.00, to kick off the learning journey. If you missed the Live session, you can still continue to the pre-recorded presentation video.  During the introduction, you’ll hear a real lived experience example, shared with care and purpose.
This story helps bring the learning to life, offering valuable insights into the importance of adult responses and emotional regulation when a child discloses harm.

Start with the Introduction – watch the video presentation first, which is hosted on Canva. The slides are narrated. To listen you need to press the small TV icon a the top of your screen. Wait a few seconds after the presenter stops speaking before pressing the arrow at the bottom of the screen to move you onto the next slide. Repeat to the end. Once you’ve watched the presentation. Download the worksheets from the google classroom and complete the 10 x multiple choice quiz questions before continuing.

Next, you will move through six pre-recorded modules at your own pace. Each module includes an engaging presentation video, downloadable worksheets and reflection exercises,  and a 10 question multiple choice quiz to reinforce your learning.
After you complete all six modules, you are welcome to join an optional live Q&A session to ask questions and share reflections. Every step is paced to help you feel comfortable and supported.

A target of 80% overall to pass. This means you need at least 90 points out of a possible 112. 

Please don’t worry  – we want you to pass and we will support you to do that.
Upon completing the modules, you are invited to join us for a final optional live session. This is your chance to connect, clarify any doubts, and celebrate what you’ve learned. We will confirm the date of the live session at a later date.

You can download all worksheets directly from the assignment or if you prefer, you can request copies for printing to be emailed to you – just let us know!
