MoreParent Know-How programme launched
The Parent Know-How programme, as announced in the Children's Plan, has been launched. This programme, worth £44million, is designed so that more parents can get access to information and help through the web, over the phone and text and instant messaging.
Specific initiatives include:
- a 'virtual school gate' run by Parentline Plus for parents of older children
- help and advice on school admissions and exclusions from the Advisory Centre for Education
- help for lone parents with vodcasts, podcasts and social networking from the Single Parent Action Network
- information and professional advice to any adult concerned about the mental health or emotional well-being of a child or young person through the Young Minds helpline
- online peer-to-peer and professional support for mothers via the Netmums site.
- an online community space for separated fathers to help them stay in touch with their children
More information is available from the DCSF website.
