A resource to support parents of teens

St Paul's Collegiate School —

We offer access for our parents to an online resource to assist you with your journey in working with your teenagers. SchoolTV is a resource which offers information on key topics with expert interviews, fact sheets, parent quiz’s, recommended apps, books and much more.

SchoolTV aggregates information from many great resources such as BeyondBlue and ReachOut, among others. SchoolTV provides a single stream of independent factual information that saves parents time and the confusion of searching online across multiple sites for information.

The topics currently available for you to view fall into the following categories:

  • Mental health: Suicide and self-harm; depression; anxiety
  • Cybersafety: Internet addiction; online pornography; social media and digital reputation; cyberbullying
  • School survival: School transitions
  • Healthy body: Sleep; body image; physical activity and exercise; diet and nutrition.

As SchoolTV releases new editions, these will be published and made available on our SchoolTV site for you to access. We will keep you informed of when new editions are available either via our Informer newsletter or other school communications. SchoolTV, labelled as ‘parenting resources’, can also be accessed via the St Paul’s website (under ‘Important Links’ in the ‘Current Parents’ section), as well as via the Parent Portal (under ‘Quick Links’).
