Family Learning

Why join our Family Learning programmes?

If you are a parent or carer who wants to help your child with their learning and development, these programmes focus on:

  • Helping you to improve skills and knowledge of English, Maths and Digital skills, and how these are taught in schools.
  • Providing useful information to help you support your child’s Health and Wellbeing, including SEND information and Online Safety.
  • Giving you ideas and resources that you can use to have fun learning together.

Joining Family Learning is an opportunity to take a first step on your route back into education or employment and improve your own skills.
