Parenting Support & Family Learning
Schools meet regularly to evaluate projects, review successes, discuss new funding and plan future events. Where appropriate, we work closely with agency partners to deliver joint initiatives. Dates for future project zone meetings can be found on the home page events section. Please contact us if you would like to attend a future zone meeting or have a project you would like help with.
To date there has been a variety of provision under this area of the Extended Service Core Offer, including;
- A number of school based Family Learning events during October 2008
- Wider provision of the Family Links Parenting Programme
- Parent awareness events on bullying during November 2008
- A series of Drug and Alcohol Awareness seminars for parents
- A series of Internet Safety seminars for parents
Schools will continue to group together to plan future events to meet the needs of local parents and guardians. If you have a suggestion for a project please contact the Confederation project manager (please add a click here link through to my email address).

Family Learning
Family Learning can include parents / carers, children and the wider family in learning together through a whole range of activities and programmes.
Family Learning aims to encourage adults to learn for their own personal development. The programmes are designed to support parents / carers to brush up their own Maths, English and Language skills, to benefit themselves and their children, and maybe gain a National Qualification.
Family Learning programmes are carried out in both school and outreach venues across Surrey.
