Studies suggest a child’s relationship with literacy starts at home. LIFE commits to breaking the cycle of low literacy by encouraging parental involvement in youth education. Our Partners in Print (PIP) workshops connect parents, children and teachers in a neutral environment where they can work on key early literacy skills and strategies together. Encouraging family involvement in a child’s education is an important part of raising standards across the public education system. LIFE partners with each school Principal to run PIP programmes for students in the government primary schools on Grand Cayman, with parent outreach activity on Cayman Brac.
