About the event
Our Parents want the same things for their children that we do. They want them to do well academically, to develop positive attitudes towards learning and to get along with others. But we know education has changed dramatically since those parents were children - many won’t understand current pedagogies, they may be shocked that their children are in a play-based environment when they expect them to be focussed on reading and writing. In this workshop we will support you to gain their trust so they have an understanding of what foundation skills are needed to develop not only literacy and maths but for living and learning in the future.
