Cafcass Launches New Parenting Course
Planning Together for Children, a programme created by the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service (Cafcass), has been launched on behalf of the Ministry of Justice to provide online support for parents involved in private law family court proceedings.
It replaces the Separated Parents Information Programme (SPIP). Around 24,000 parents are referred to a SPIP course every year and their feedback has been used to develop this new set of resources, according to Cafcass.
Planning Together for Children encourages parents to consider how they can communicate and work together to agree parenting arrangements without the need for more court hearings and to understand how disagreements and arguments can worry their children and impact on their wellbeing and development.
The new programme aims to reduce the time families spend in family court proceedings and to lower the number of families returning to court.
