Family Learning
The aim of the 'Family Learning Together' is to introduce the concept of family learning and to make these accessible to families with English as second language. The Bangladeshi families in particular face particular barriers to involvement in learning and are not confident supporting their children’s learning.
The project will work with families with children across the deprived neighborhoods of Sandwell Borough, adopting good practices from across the country.
We hope to break the barriers to learning and show that learning is fun, can take place everywhere and can be enjoyed by everyone, whatever their age or interest. We will put all our efforts to raise achievement levels, expectations and aspirations of both children and adults.

A great opportunity for the women of North Smethwick and beyond to get together and have fun in a women only event. As in the past this event is to get women to socialise and learn from one another.
