The programme provides a forum for sharing ideas - the parents know that
they are not alone and there are places to go to for help and support.
|
A good opportunity to revisit the challenges we face, gave us a shot of
enthusiasm for finding solutions and improving our services.
|
Being involved in the workshops refreshed our awareness of problems parents face with the children's reading and skills to help.
|
The contact with parents and teachers was beneficial.
|
Put us in touch with the Resource Teachers of Literacy service and a new set of parents we may be able to help.
|
The parents seemed more confident by the end of the programme and things
seemed to have improved with the children, who were more keen to read -
parents were realising that they could make a big difference to how
their child learns and progresses.
|
We would like to be involved in future workshops because this has been a
very valuable experience that allows us to strengthen links with the
community and enables us to identify parents and children in need of
help.
