About the Hub
Rebecca is our Learning Hub Coordinator for Throckley. Get in touch to find out if there are spaces or to find out which extra-curricular activities are running.
This Hub runs Wednesdays 3:30 – 6:00pm.
In this Hub we can give extra help in all school subjects in Key Stage 2 and 3 as well as GCSE and A-Levels. You may be working group in a small group or one-to-one with your own tutor befriender. We want this Hub to be a space where you feel you belong and you feel comfortable to share your worries. That way we can work with you to find a solution.

What you say
‘This has been brilliant as it gives Jasmine a time and place dedicated to do homework away from distractions. Thank you so much for the service you provide for the children, Jasmine loves coming and it’s a great help for to me as we were struggling to get her to complete her homework at home. It’s great for her to have someone on hand to help her.’
‘I look forward to coming to the sessions, it’s really rewarding. It’s nice to come every week and see the same children because you can build a bold with them and know what level they're at, so you know how to help them best. Becoming a tutor/befriender and not just a tutor was appealing to me because it’s less formal and more friendly.'
‘We had really positive feedback from a mum who had a great parents evening for her daughter. Her daughter does a lot of extra work in a 1-2-1 setting with us at one of our Hubs. Her teacher seems to think that it is paying off and she is improving across the board, especially in reading comprehension which we have focused on a lot.’
