Parent Workshops

Parents and carers are welcome to attend our Parent Information Workshops to learn more about supporting their children with learning difficulties. Our workshops focus on evidence-based literacy and numeracy instruction and best-practice approaches to teaching and supporting students with specific learning difficulties, such as dyslexia. 

Parents and carers are also welcome to attend our professional learning workshops. Many of our on-demand professional learning workshops have specially reduced parent prices to make them more accessible for parents seeking to understand their children’s learning. We have included a selection of relevant professional learning workshops on this page.

Workshops are generally held online, but they can also be held face-to-face at your school or community centre with prior booking.
