Family Learning

Family Learning activities are designed to help families enjoy learning, have fun and keep parents up to date with their children’s learning. Family learning opportunities cover a whole range of free activities and courses where parents, grandparents, carers, guardian’s foster carers and children can learn together.

There are a great range of opportunities for you to learn alongside your children in the south East CIP.  You can choose to learn a new language, a new skill such as nail art, jewellery making, relaxation techniques, various arts and crafts, cooking on a budgets and much more. Some courses focus on English or maths and help you to understand how to help your children learn. At the same time, you can improve your own levels in these subjects and lots of adults choose to gain a nationally recognised qualification as a result. All courses are free, fun and family centres.

Below are details of Family Learning courses that are happening in the South East CIP during 2009/2010.
