Children learn about the responsibility of parenting by looking after a bag of flour.
Parenting issues are never far from the headlines with Government policy explicitly recognising the importance of children learning about parental responsibility while still at primary school.
Many schools have devised projects based on the book by Anne Fine - Flour Babies - in which children have to look after a bag of flour as if it were a baby. Kathleen Griffin visited one such school, St Elizabeth's Roman Catholic school in Tower Hamlets, London to talk to the deputy head Carolyn Lindsay and to the girls and boys of year six.
