Family Learning
At Blackburn with Darwen Adult Learning we have a team of dedicated, expert Family Learning tutors who deliver a range of courses (from 2 to 30 hours) in schools, family centres and community settings.
By finding out how children are learning and developing in nursery or school, Family Learning enables parents and carers to support this learning at home. Evidence shows that when parents or carers are involved in their children's education, children achieve more. We use exciting resources and activities which make learning FUN!
We also provide a route back into education for those adults who want to improve their skills.
