Parents will be encouraged and supported to attend parent meetings with their children or attend important school events that often go unnoticed.

Children are fun and volunteers love to make a difference sitting alongside a family and seeing them work together on homework and/or learn English together is an attractive volunteering opportunity!
A typical homework club day involves children piling into the shop front we've hired and immediately pulling out homework - no stopping them from learning. Sitting around tables and working through homework, giving additional practice sheets or talking through assignments, we are primarily helping one to one. Additionally, we've now seen parents bringing their homework from their ESOL classes and have a separate area/homework zone to assist them with assignments and answer questions.
