    Brief

    Cornwall Council is commissioning a Parents as First Teachers (PAFT) service to deliver evidence-based, trauma-responsive home learning support to families with young children. The programme aims to improve early childhood development, strengthen parent-child relationships, and enhance home learning environments. The service will provide targeted, structured home visits using the accredited PAFT curriculum to families most at risk of poor outcomes, prioritising those in Camborne & Redruth and St Austell, Newquay & Clay Country areas. Priority will be given to families with children aged 3–4 years, children with emerging or confirmed SEND, families with limited access to funded childcare, or those experiencing trauma and adversity. Delivery will be integrated with Family Hubs, Health Visiting, Speech and Language Therapy, Early Years Inclusion, and other Early Help services to maximise impact and ensure coordinated support for vulnerable families.
