WHAT ARE THE SPECIFIC SERVICES THAT YOU PROVIDE?:
Parent Child Home Programme (PCHP) is an innovative, home based literacy
programme that prepares children (1-3 yr olds) to succeed academically. Trained Home
Visitors visit twice weekly to talk, read and play with the children and their families. The
books and educational toys are gifts to enable the family to continue the activities in their
own time and at their own pace. This helps the children to develop the skills they need to
succeed in school as well as providing them with essential early learning materials.
Sport is Spraoi Toddler Groups: Using carefully chosen toys, books and rhymes, they
give parents the opportunity to meet other parents and to play with their babies/toddlers
(0-2 years old) in a stimulating environment. Each session also includes a short talk on
how parents can help their children develop their social, language and thinking skills as
well as promoting their well-being and involvement.
Parents Together Community Course brings parents together to discuss their
relationships with their children in a community setting. Using video-based case studies
as the starting point for discussion, it helps parents to develop a closer relationship with
their children as well finding new ways to encourage their children and help them to
learn.
Stretch to Learn
While support in the Early Years is an essential, we strongly believe that if students are
to progress to further and higher education, they will need on-going support. Stretch to
Learn programmes are devised by ELI staff in collaboration with the local schools and
community groups and include:
o School projects with children and families
o NCI Primary Literacy and Numeracy Challenges
o Family celebration awards
o Second level tuition support
o Discover University
o Pathways to Education - talks for parents on helping their children access further
education
o Third level student participation grant
Further details of our services are provided on our website: www.ncirl.ie/eli
Third level Courses: The National College of Ireland offers full and part-time courses
from foundation to degree and postgraduate level in its specialist areas of business,
human resource management, accountancy, finance, computing and community studies.

WHAT ARE THE SPECIFIC SERVICES THAT YOU PROVIDE?
The HSCL scheme is a mainstream preventative strategy targeted at pupils in
primary and secondary school who are at risk of not reaching their potential in
the education system.
The HSCL scheme is concerned with establishing partnership and collaboration
between parents and teachers in the interests of childrens learning and it
promotes active co-operation between home, school and community agencies in
promoting the educational interests of the child.
Individual HSCL Co-ordinators serve the liaison needs of one or more schools in
a catchment area.
The HSCLs are also supported by a cluster system. There are three different
types of cluster groups:
Family cluster
Local cluster
Term cluster
The family cluster is where coordinators of primary and post-primary schools in
a common catchment area meet and work together to identify and respond to the
needs of the families in a designated area of disadvantage. These meetings help
coordinators to share resources, to organise common courses and classes for
parents, and to prepare transfer programmes. Home visits are planned at family
cluster levels so that no family will have more than one coordinator visiting.
The local cluster is made up of a multiple of family clusters, and it meets once a
month. Coordinators are supported, informed and affirmed at their local cluster
meetings, enabling them to be effective in the provision of services to parents,
schools and communities.
The term cluster meets twice a year. An area cluster comprises of a number of
local clusters within a wide region.
