birth to 8 is classed as early years, the 'teachers' on the course are probably early years practitioners who are qualified to advise on children up to 8....... you would need different strategies for older children.

Where is the funding coming from for such a venture? Does anyone know?

The course is run by catholic childrens rescue society which is a charity and funded by collections (st josephs penny)

Re: Parenting classes

I really think St. Josephs Penny could be put to better use.
Encouraging families to do activities together would be a start.

Re: Parenting classes

I think it's fair to say most of us probably thought it was a social services/council led thing early in the thread. I don't know anything about the organisation running it,but I think it being run by a religious organisation may put more people off than actually encourage them.

Is anybody actually going on this course ? It would be interesting to see what they make of it.
