Fielding Primary School runs two Family Links Programmes a year, one in the Autumn term and one in the Spring term. The 'Family Links Nurturing Programme' is a 10-week programme focusing on supporting parents across a wide range of parenting challenges.

The aims of the Nurturing Programme are to:

• Give children and parents an emotionally healthy springboard for their lives and their learning.
• Promote emotional literacy and emotional health.
• Enhance self-esteem, self-awareness, and empathy.
• Provide effective strategies to encourage co-operation, responsible behaviour and manage challenging behaviour in children.
• Children flourish when what they can do matches our expectations of what they should be able to do (appropriate expectations).
• Understanding how our own childhood experience can affect us as adults (Self-awareness)
• Helping children to manage their behaviour with clear boundaries, praise, rewards, fair penalties etc. makes life more enjoyable for parents and children (Positive Discipline)
• Children who are treated with empathy and respect will learn to be empathic and respectful towards other people (Empathy)
