and communities
Thank you for your hospitality and co-operation during my visit on the 28 January 2009. I am particularly grateful to you, and your staff for all the work involved in preparing for the visit and for giving up a great deal of time to meet with me. Please pass on my thanks to those concerned.
p.1
and communities
The visit provided much useful evidence, which will contribute to our national evaluation and reporting for the family learning survey. It was particularly interesting to see provision in the Richard Cobden Learning Centre and to talk to parents.
p.1
and communities
The evidence used to inform the judgements made on this one day visit included: discussions with managers, family learning staff, partners and parents, scrutiny of lesson plans and schemes of work and a visit to a school family learning activity, including a meeting with the head teacher. A range of documents was reviewed.
p.1
and communities
Overall, the family learning provision I sampled during my one day visit to the London Borough of Camden’s adult and community learning service is good. I agreed to provide a summary of the good practice seen and to identify some areas for development, and I outline the main findings as bulleted points below. The main strengths are:
p.1
and communities

and communities

and communities
I hope these observations are useful as you continue to develop your family learning provision. If there are any points or aspects of the visit you wish to discuss, please contact me. As we will be evaluating the survey, you may be contacted in the future to find out your views. I hope you will contribute to this evaluation.
