The study support centre is part of the Playing for Success initiative. Our primary role is to deliver a ten week after school program to pupils from local primary and secondary schools.
Although the children come to the centre to learn it is not like being in school, the activities are fun, the atmosphere is relaxed and informal.

The Basics:

  • Cohorts run for ten weeks.

  • Pupils attend one session a week.

  • Primary school pupils will attend 3:30pm - 5:30pm

  • Secondary school pupils will attend 5:30pm - 7:30pm

  • Pupils are brought to the centre by minibus from school

  • Pupils are dropped off back at school after the session.

What We Do:

  • Support pupils with Literacy, Numeracy and ICT, using the football club and the ground as a resource to inspire pupils.

  • Activities use a variety of equipment such as the latest ICT kit, video and digital cameras, Interactive quizzes and the stadium itself to help enhance the curriculum and engage pupils.

  • Boost Literacy, Numeracy and ICT skills and also confidence and self esteem.
