Helping you to support your child’s learning in fun ways!

Family Learning at Leicester Adult Education is about families learning together, by encouraging parents and carers to learn new skills alongside their children.

Family Learning courses help mums, dads, and carers to learn new skills that will enable them to support their child’s learning, to help them do well at school and to give pre-school aged children the best positive start to school.

Our Family Learning courses are designed to develop parent and carer’s confidence in supporting their children’s individual learning, by teaching parents how and what their children are learning.

Family Learning courses are centred around having fun and enjoying learning together as a family. Our courses also allow parents to meet families with children the same age, share experiences and support each other.

“Family Learning courses are a useful way for parents to gain support especially if they are not confident in certain subjects or school curriculum themselves”

“These courses were fantastic! I have learnt how easy it is to be involved with my daughter”
