Edinburgh Group Triple P- Positive Parenting Programme
What is Group Triple P?
Group Teen Triple P within the Psychology of Parenting Project (PoPP) is a broad-based parenting programme delivered over eight weeks to parents and carers of children aged 3 and 4 years old who are experiencing a variety of difficulties within their parenting role. Parents may be finding it difficult to put in place appropriate boundaries and positive parenting strategies to support their child’s social and emotional development. The programme runs with up to 10 parents and starts with four (2 hour) group sessions where parents actively participate in a range of exercises. In weeks 5, 6 and 7 individual telephone or consultation sessions assist parents with independent problem solving while they are practising the skills at home. The programme then concludes with a final group session to review progress, discuss maintenance issues and complete final evaluations. Parents will be selected for participation using a range of tools or methods but all will undertake the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire which will also be re-issued at the end of the course to measure outcomes for the child/children

Facilitators new to group work are expected to complete the additional group work training provided by the Parent and Carer Support Team via Workforce Learning and Development. The table below provides an estimate of the time commitment required for facilitators to participate in the required training.

In addition to the delivery of programme group and individual telephone or consultation sessions, the facilitator should allow time for set up, preparing for and reviewing the sessions with their co-facilitator, reviewing questionnaire booklets, and collating and submitting group data such as attendance, evaluation, etc. to Business Support. Facilitators may be able to shadow or co-deliver with an experienced facilitator initially to help increase their confidence. Facilitators are required to deliver at least two Group Triple P programmes per year to ensure programmes are regularly available for parents in their local area.

The importance of fidelity
For Families to derive maximum benefit from the programme, it is imperative that they are delivered as close as possible, in terms of method and content, to the research trials from which the evidence-base is derived. The mechanisms in place to support the drive towards fidelity include
The Parent and Carer Support Team has responsibility for co-ordinating and supporting the delivery of a range of parenting programmes including Group Triple P programmes across Edinburgh. Following training, facilitators will join
Edinburgh’s team of Group Triple P facilitators who deliver programmes in each area of the city. The Parent and Carer Support Team will support facilitators to plan, set up, promote, deliver and evaluate Group Triple P programmes. Business Support manage the Group Triple P programme application process, score questionnaire booklets and distribute and collate all programme paperwork for facilitators and the PoPP team. Facilitators will be invited to expected to attend Group Triple P facilitator forums and peer support sessions throughout the year to enhance their engagement with parents and delivery of the programme. This will also allow facilitators an opportunity to raise any concerns, share good practice and contribute to plans to improve the implementation of Group Triple P in Edinburgh. It is our aim that facilitators are given the support they need to undertake the delivery of targeted parenting programmes in Edinburgh.
