Article to celebrate SPAAK`s anniversary
Birthdays are important, and SPAAK Education Centre in the Oxford Road celebrates it's first anniversary on the 15th of March. During this first year SPAAK has made a real impact on the local community through its services to local schools, providing cover teachers and supported learning for out of school pupils, and especially with its homework club.
The location of the SPAAK centre in the gatehouse of the old Battle Hospital was a conscious choice by the senior teachers to place a learning centre at the heart of the Oxford Road community, where children can enjoy learning in a calm, quiet and comfortable atmosphere. In fact it is this calm atmosphere which is the magic ingredient in encouraging children to enjoy learning.
Besides a full suite of thirty computers with state of the art learning packages, Reading parents have been particularly pleased for the help provided by SPAAKs ' experienced specialist subject teachers able to cover all the main GCSE and A Levels, with one to one tuition raising those essential examination grades.
To celebrate their first birthday on the 15th of March, SPAAK has planned an Open Day for parents and children, all day on Sunday the 15th of this month, followed by a whole week FREE Homework Club, from Monday 16th to Friday 20th During this week children will be able to drop in with their homework between 3.30 pm and 7.00 pm completely free of charge, and discover how to make learning fun once again.
