“Academic Support has done an excellent job of supporting my child academically and socially. He really values the support given when he comes to your centre and has commented on how friendly and helpful the team are. He has asked to change the day he would usually attend Academic Support so he can still attend weekly and go to his sports club, highlighting how much he enjoys the sessions. I’m very thankful that he was able to still attend sessions virtually when we went into lockdown. The continuous support has been great, thank you.” – Parent of Secondary Academic Support student
