Home Environment

It looks like the new DCSF has hit the ground running - it's only been in existence for a month but already a steady stream of reports have emerged from the new government department (though in fairness, these would have originally been commissioned by the old DfES).

I get a lot of enquiries from students for information about children speaking English as an additional language, so perhaps some of you will be interested in Raising the Achievement of Bilingual Learners in Primary Schools. There are also two new reports dealing with different aspects of parenting - why not try looking at Family and Parenting Support in Sure Start Local Programmes or Engaging Parents in Raising Achievement Do Parents Know They Matter?
