Look out for Family Learning @ Morningside

My name is Jackie Radcliffe and I am the Community Learning & Development worker, based here in Morningside Primary School on Wednesdays. My role here is to work with as many families as I can, I know from experience things can get tough sometimes and knowing that there is that little bit of extra support to help you through these occasions, that is not a statutory service, can be very helpful.

Things such as Growing Together, Learning Forever and a Numeracy programme which are very informal, relaxed and YOU would set the topics along with your children that maybe need that extra bit of support. For example:

 “I am rubbish at helping with homework, what can I do to help my child”

“There are after school clubs but none of my kids can go because of transport and childcare”

 These are a few issues that I have come across in the past and worked with families to get better at by giving hints and tips that are a bit different to the conventional ideas.
