News: "Digital Families" national project

02-07-2012: Opportunity to develop parental engagement

‘Digital Families’ is a unique by project designed to help every school support their children’s learning through greater parental engagement.
 
Delivered by Campaign for Learning in partnership with the e-Learning Foundation and supported by the Nominet Trust this is a major national programme available to all schools that wish to take part.

Research evidence across a wide range of studies confirms that parental engagement and interest in their children’s learning has a major influence on the child’s academic achievements. The challenge for schools is how to support their families to express that engagement and interest effectively.
 
‘Digital Families’ is a dynamic programme that will excite pupils, parents and staff about using new media and technology to support learning.
 
It costs nothing to take part – except your time and commitment – but the benefits to children and their families can be spectacular.
 
The training days are in September.
