How Important Is Learning At Home?

Some parent’s wonder why schools set homework – after all, the reason children go to school is to learn isn’t it? Yet, out-of-school-hours learning is considered to be an essential part of a good education. In fact, it’s now regarded as a vital ingredient for academic success. Even the government’s homework policy expects schools to set homework which reinforces exactly what a child has learnt at school.

It’s therefore no surprise that The Student Support Centre uses short National Curriculum based diagnostic assessments, conducted completely free of charge, in order to identify a child’s current strengths and areas of weakness and clearly ascertain what’s needed before a specific course of study can be structured.

It’s also no surprise that the programmes from The Student Support Centre, which are currently being used by schools throughout the UK, are totally in line with the National Curriculum and cover work throughout all key stages to higher level GCSE. They are specifically designed to work in conjunction with what’s being taught at school - supplementing and reinforcing classroom work.  A typical Student Support Centre programme costs a family, on average, between £12 and £18 a week.

This is another real benefit of a programme from The Student Support Centre because the cost covers BOTH maths and English subjects and is for the whole family, not per child. That represents exceptional value for money when compared to just about every other rival learning system, including centre-based tuition and private tutors!!!  

There are many reasons why parents of more than 175,000 children throughout the UK have chosen The Student Support Centre’s maths and English teaching programmes above all others.
