Family learning provides a range of opportunities for families in the widest sense (children, dads, mums, carers, grandparents…) to learn together in order to raise skills across generations. These intergenerational programmes take place in partnership with schools or other organisations such as libraries, children’s centres and youth clubs. They enable families to learn in a relaxed and ‘fun’ atmosphere, picking up ideas to reinforce learning at home. Why is Family Learning important? Research has shown that parental support is a key factor throughout a child’s education. Family learning helps adult family members to gain confidence to provide vital help for their children, and helps promote good relationships within families. It also offers a second chance for dads, mums and carers to return to learning, to develop their own skills and to be aware of all the other learning opportunities on offer. For many adults a family learning course can be the first step to taking up further adult learning and training opportunities or gaining a job. All family learning is offered free to families. Wider Family Learning projects (WFL) Wider family learning projects are fun ways for families to learn together. The projects are delivered in partnership with other organisations such as libraries, museums, health centres, schools and businesses Family Learning Week - Friday 8-Saturday 16 October 2010 Family Learning Week is a national campaign that raises awareness of the importance and scope of family learning. Croydon has won six national awards in the last eight years for Family Learning Week. A wide range of fun, free activities will be taking place across the borough, such as stone carving, wall climbing, tai chi, stunt bike racing, healthy lunch boxes, storytelling and much more. To find out what’s going on in your area visit www.calat.ac.uk or www.croydon.gov.uk from mid September. Family Literacy, Language and Numeracy programmes (FLLN) Family Literacy, Language and Numeracy (FLLN) programmes take place in partnership with schools, children’s centres, libraries and other organisations. Dads, mums and carers have the opportunity to develop their own skills in English, maths or computers and work towards qualifications. They can also find out how their children are learning and developing and how they can support their learning at home. Children’s own skills in literacy, language or numeracy are improved, as well as their confidence and self-esteem. Big Lottery ‘Life in London’ projects CALAT Family Learning is currently running informal family learning projects with Big Lottery funding through a partnership bid with Wandsworth Council, which will continue until June 2011. These fun, informal projects involve use of IT such as computers, digital photography and recording. For more information about Family Learning please contact the Family Learning team on % 020 8662 5571 or email [email protected] www.calat.ac.uk 38 Health, Fitness & Exercise CALAT’s Health & Fitness programme offers something for everyone.
