Courses for Parents/Carers of Woodgate Primary School.
We have successfully run a range of courses this year.
Recently a group of parents took part in the 'Speak Easy' Relationship and Sex Education Course.
This course will be available again from September for any parent that missed the opportunity this term. Everyone that took part said how much they had enjoyed the course and that they now feel they have the confidence and information to discuss sensitive issues with their children that they did not have before.
The 'Digital Families' course was also well received and helped to raise awareness of digital safety and online media. This course will be available again next year.
Here is a list of courses that will be available next year completely free of charge. They will run during school hours at school.
