This practice model demonstrates how family ties are maintained and created through the Family Learning Programme at HMP Wolds. Fathers, their children and their partners have weekly visits in a relaxed environment, allowing children and fathers to bond, and fathers to interact with their children in their capacity as parent. Both parents learn about parenting skills, and complete tasks to receive an OCN certificate. As well as a description of the programme, Ofsted have also produced a video of staff, prisoners and their families discussing the programme and its impact.
