Worry about the time your child spends, on their homework?
Find homework is often a chore, for both you and your child?
Looking for a quiet place for your child, to complete their work?

As a parent, it’s not uncommon for you to find homework not only to be time-consuming but at worst a ‘stressful experience’. It’s no wonder some parents have admitted to completing their child’s homework just to get it over and done with.

In fact, a recent study by vouchercodespro.co.uk, found nearly a quarter of parents regularly completed their child’s homework, to simply make up for more free time. [1]

As you can imagine, not only can this inhibit your child’s learning, but lessen the importance of homework and therefore the importance of working hard, to get the success they want in the future.

Does Raising Explorers offer a homework club?

To help parents just like you, Raising Explorers offers a complete after-school, and weekend homework club service – 7 days a week. That’s right. 7 days a week so your child can get the help whenever they need.

Just simply pop-in.

How can an after-school homework club help?

A competent after-school homework club such as one provided at Raising Explorers offers a quiet and supportive environment to ensure your child receives the outstanding level of care, and education – our centre in Manningham, Bradford is known to provide. Raising Explorers hand-picks only the highest-trained, and experienced teachers in many subjects across Key stages 1 to 4, so your child can receive total support between the ages of 5 all the way to 15…

…7 days a week.

What style of teaching can my child expect?

Raising Explorers provides your child with the wonderful opportunity of 1-to-1 educational support.
