About the Educational Support Programme
The Programme is a unique, flexible and proactive training initiative that focuses on the present abilities of the student. Using an in-house initial assessment, we are able to identify where the student needs help.
The Programme covers a variety of subjects which engages our students’
in open debate that in our experience develops mutual respect and effective
communication skills which gives each student the forum to express their
personal opinion on topical subjects.
