Why Schools choose ParentTV
ParentTV is an invaluable resource that teachers and parents can draw upon to help parents navigate tricky situations in school.
Parents have come to me so appreciative for short, sharp videos which give them some wisdom that they might not already have. Parents want the best for their children and are looking for information, so having experts that provide that information for them is gold!

We are loving ParentTV at our school! We are working through 9 Ways To A Resilient Child course as a parent/staff body at the moment.

School Teacher
ParentTV provides an avenue and platform of support for our parents that they can access in the privacy of their own home. I also really like being able to refer parents to the site or a particular video when they raise certain issues or concerns with me.
School Principal
ParentTV allows me to easily share content with parents I work with. It's also good because the clips are short, easy to understand and are delivered by experts in the field.
Wellbeing Officer
ParentTV benefits parents but also teachers. If parents are equipped with the tools to raise their children well, that creates a better behaved, more resilient and more teachable child in the classroom. As a school we are providing a wonderful tool for our school community to help them raise their children well.
School Director
I had the privilege of speaking with a Mum about Fathers Day. The children’s father had passed away when they were young and Mum was keen to address the subject of death with her children in a supportive and age appropriate manner. It was fantastic to be able to so easily turn to ParentTV to get some expert and helpful advice from Maggie Dent on this very topic. Thanks for creating this great resource and I’m excited I can now direct others to this space.
