Review of Learning Together and Learning Together @ Home

On this page

Learning Together, developed by the South Australian Department for Education, aims to create enriched learning environments that can be transferred to the home to support positive changes for children and families. The program is comprised of a number of levels of support, ranging from universal playgroups in areas with high levels of disadvantage, to home visiting designed to engage families who may find it more difficult to participate in centre-based programs.

At the request of the department, researchers at the Fraser Mustard Centre undertook a program model review of 'Learning Together' and 'Learning Together at Home'.

The review employed a mixed-methods research design with a focus on exploring the evidence base for similar programs and understanding the way in which Learning Together and Learning Together at Home programs currently operate to inform the development of an evidence-based program logic to guide ongoing program implementation.
