What is Peep?
The Peep Learning Together Programme helps parents, carers and practitioners make the most of the learning opportunities in everyday life, supporting their babies' and young children's learning through play.
Research has found that the main influences on young children’s outcomes are the quality of the relationship with their parents and carers, and what they do with their family, from birth. Early intervention makes a real difference. Our evidence-based Peep Learning Together Programme contributes to this, by helping:
- parents and carers to improve their children’s life chances, by:
- developing sensitive and responsive relationships with their babies and children,
- making the most of day-to-day learning opportunities – listening, talking, playing, singing, and sharing books and stories together,
- recognising and building on their own learning potential and achievements,
- babies and children to become confident communicators and learners through play
- practitioners to develop their work with parents/carers and young children
- communities to narrow the attainment gap, which appears even before children reach school.
