increased involvement of parents in their children's education

Beziehungsaufbau und Interaktiosfähigkeiten

Also, a number of parents noted that, as a result of their own learning they were better able to support older children with their homework. Furthermore, the parents frequently recognised that by engaging in learning themselves they were providing positive role models for their children, thus potentially changing attitudes towards learning and thus going some way to addressing the intergenerational cycle of educational underachievement and lack of aspiration.

Beschreibung der Aktivität

early interventions in Children's Centres

Evaluierung der Aktivität

Visits to eight Children’s Centres were organised in order to access a wide range of users and activities. Informal interviews were conducted either on a one-to-one basis or in pairs, triads or small groups depending on the situation and what was most appropriate at the time. Across all of the interview groups the researcher used a standardised approach drawing from a list of predetermined questions as appropriate and within the bounds of allowing ‘conversation’ to flow. In larger group interviews (and also some one-to-one interviews) a narrative or ‘story telling’ approach was taken whereby the researcher took a light touch approach and enabled the participant(s) to tell their story with limited interference or questioning. In total 73 service users contributed to the research. The researcher spoke with 12 staff, including centre coordinators, the employability lead and frontline staff during the visits. In addition, a more formal staff focus group (n=7) was conducted. The researcher also met with two groups of volunteers (n=7) and two partner focus groups (n=14).
