Personalised Programmes for Children


Whilst behavioural difficulties in childhood can have a lasting impact, parenting programmes have been shown to make a real difference in families’ lives. The Personalised Programmes for Children (PPC) study is looking at personalised approaches to the treatment of behavioural difficulties in children. In this project we will work with parents to develop a programme which is tailored to parents' and children's needs, and find out whether this works better than current parent training. The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust is leading on a National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) programme grant in collaboration with South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, King’s College London, the University of Reading, the University of Liverpool and University College London.
