Family learning courses

The Buckinghamshire Family Learning team run a variety of free courses for parents and carers of children across Buckinghamshire:

• For Early Years: In person courses for both parent/carer and child from ages 12 months to 5 years. These are held at Family Centres across Buckinghamshire.
• For parents/carers of school-aged children: These are 5 to 6-week online courses or 2-hour in-person workshops.

We design our courses to help parents understand how they can best support their children throughout their early years and at school.

Our courses are fun and practical, and parents who attend a course often choose to come to more.

We also encourage and support parents and carers on our courses to develop their own skills. This may be returning to learning or boosting skills in preparation for going back to work. We aim to help you feel ready to take the next step to achieve your goals.

Courses for school-aged children are for parents only. Early years courses can include parents and children (aged between 2 and 4 years), as well as parents only.
