Research suggests that by age 11, a disadvantaged child is on average nine months behind their peers in English and Maths – and that only 14% of this is related to what happens at school, while 49% is related to what happens at home.

Learning with Parents was set up to help all families have positive learning interactions together. Find out more at learningwithparents.com.
