What do people in Westminster think of Family Learning?

Ofsted July 2009


“Parents were very positive about how their confidence, communication and interpersonal skills had improved considerably since attending family learning. Parenting skills improved along with wider learning. Parents commented on how they were better able to manage their children’s behaviour, communicate with them and support their learning at home effectively.

Children made good progress in their learning and attainment. Teachers commented favourably about their improved concentration, attainment and behaviour in classrooms.”

“The course was extremely important for all of us. Maths was in a way easy to understand. It was practical and I could understand many of the things that before made me nervous.” 07/02/12 Rute Pereira de Souza evaluating a Maths and Craft course

“What I find particularly useful is having practical suggestions about how to structure a story for children. Also, how to comment on pictures, words and the plot and how to change the focus from the story to feelings. You can use books to talk about everyday life.” 05/03/12 Francesca Colombo evaluating a Bookstart workshop 
 “It’s really nice to be doing something like this with your child. It’s therapeutic and helps you to bond as well as learning something. I can use this now with my other child at home.” 28/01/12 Andie Williams evaluating a Pimlico Library workshop 
“It was very interesting for adults as well as children. It is also very nice to do something outside of the home as a family. Me and my daughter enjoyed it very much. Excellent!” 4/02/12 Alison Watts evaluating a Paddington Children’s Library workshop
