PEEP Learning Together Programme

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.
