Learning Families Project

The Learning Families Project targeted school children from educationally, socially or economically disadvantaged background, at risk of early school leaving because their parents are not able to support their education or provide encouragement and motivation. The project focused on tested family learning activities, in non-formal environments outside normal school times. Each project partner worked with young people and parents to design and deliver family learning in selected schools, and to create a Training and Resource pack applicable in all settings nationally and across Europe. It seems like the project aims and outputs align closely with a lot of Mifamily work and that a lot of the resources could be put to fairly immediate use in the Mifamily project. A lot of the resources and research could also be very useful in helping develop the curriculum. The project produced mainly PDF-based resources, but there are a lot of them there.
