Family and Community Learning
Family Learning Programmes are funded by the Learning Schools Council (LSC) and are delivered in early year’s settings, children’s centres, schools, libraries, community venues and in any other settings where parents and children are brought together. Family Learning consists of two strands, Wider Family Learning (WFL) and Family Literacy, Language and Numeracy (FLLN).
Wider Family Learning (WFL)
These programmes aim to:
- Encourage parents/carers and their children to learn together
- Develop the skills or knowledge of the adults and children
- Help parents/carers to be more active in the support of their children’s interests, learning and development
