Education
Secondary School
Adolescence changes how young people think, feel and behave. These sessions unpack what is actually happening, for the parents at home and the staff in the classroom.
Schools I've worked with
“We have had such a positive experience of working with Lorraine. She has come into our school to deliver sessions for students and parents in year 11 around exam revision and working together as a parent and child productively. Her advice is down to earth, practical, and gets parents and their children talking about important stuff together. The session was fun and engaging, and she has a lovely empathic approach. Lorraine has worked alongside us as staff brilliantly to embed our school messaging around revision planning and techniques too, but in her own wonderful way.”

What people say
“Just a quick email to thank you for your workshop last night about adolescence and online gaming. The talk was beautifully put together with just the right mix of science, examples, discussion and humour! The two hours flew by and gave us all lots of food for thought. Feedback from our parents has been really positive.”
