Groups and services for parents and carers, helping to build positive relationships.
Research tells us that the biggest influences on children's outcomes are:
- the quality of the relationship with their parents and carers
- and what they do with their family, from birth - known as the home learning environment.
Peep Learning Together Aims
- parents and carers to enrich their children's life chances, by making the most of everyday learning opportunities (listening, talking, playing, singing and sharing books and stories together)
- children to become confident communicators and active learners through play
- practitioners to develop their work with parents/carers and young children.
- parents and carers to recognise and build on their own learning potential and achievements
- communities to support children’s learning, which appears even before children reach school.
Peep Programme delivery is underpinned by the principles.
