1) Create your inspiring vision with Pictability

This first session uses the Pictability™ toolkit — a strengths-based visual planning approach — to help participants create an inspiring long-term vision for their child, their family, and themselves. You explore aspirations and possibilities, represent them visually, and clarify what a meaningful future looks like. This vision becomes the foundation for all future goal setting and action.

2) Identify and harness your strengths

This session focuses on identifying your personal and family strengths — capabilities, values, and resources that already exist. Participants reflect on what they do well and how those strengths can be intentionally applied to achieve goals. The emphasis is on building confidence and shifting from a deficit lens to a strengths-based mindset.

3) Your Family Goals (Learn about the Coach & Be Coached model)

Participants review their first Family Goal and are introduced to the Coach & Be Coached (CBC) model. This reflective coaching framework supports deeper thinking about barriers, opportunities, and next steps. The session strengthens participants’ ability to self-coach and support others in goal progression.

4) Your Child Goals (applying the Coach & Be Coached model)

This session applies the same structured coaching approach to a Child Goal. Participants break down long-term aspirations into actionable steps and consider supports, timelines, and indicators of progress. The goal is to translate vision into realistic, forward-moving action.

5) From Goals to Action

Here participants learn the Goal to Action tool, a structured method for turning aspirations into practical, manageable steps. Long-term goals are broken into short-term actions that build momentum and confidence. The session reinforces accountability and strengthens the link between intention and implementation.

6) Engaging Supports

Goals are rarely achieved in isolation. In this session participants explore both formal and informal supports — including family, friends, community members, and professionals — and learn strategies for engaging them effectively. Participants consider how to communicate their vision clearly and invite others into shared planning.

A key focus is on engaging with educators and building genuine partnerships around shared priorities. When parents actively collaborate with educators and work toward common goals, they create consistency between home and school, strengthening reinforcement and follow-through. Alignment reduces mixed messages and ensures children experience coherent expectations and supports across environments. By combining parents’ deep knowledge of their child with educators’ pedagogical expertise, this partnership enhances problem-solving, builds trust, and increases the likelihood of sustained, measurable progress.

7) Your Personal Goals

This session shifts attention to the participant as an individual. Using the Circle of Influence and Circle of Control framework, participants identify where they can act directly and where they can exert influence. The focus is on strengthening personal agency and ensuring that personal wellbeing and aspirations are not overlooked.

8) Self Care and Wellbeing

Participants explore strategies that support mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing. The session emphasises resilience, stress management, and sustainable energy for long-term progress. Self-care is positioned not as a luxury, but as a core component of effective leadership and family wellbeing.

9) Your Agency to Create Progress

This session deepens participants’ sense of agency — their belief in their capacity to create change. Participants reflect on what sustains motivation, how to navigate setbacks, and how to maintain forward momentum. The emphasis is on ownership, confidence, and sustained progress beyond the programme.

10) Toolkit & Journey Map

The final session integrates all tools learned throughout the programme. Participants create a Journey Map that captures their vision, goals, actions, supports, and insights gained. This consolidated toolkit equips participants to continue applying strengths-based planning and coaching strategies independently.
