Learning Support
The Learning Support Department caters for students with a particular learning disability or whose first language is not English.
Students receive one-to-one tuition from qualified and experienced teachers, undertaking personally structured lessons which aim to tackle areas of particular difficulty while boosting confidence in their abilities.
We also offer extra instruction in small groups, allowing students to develop their knowledge and support each other in a caring and comfortable environment. Groups will often spend time reinforcing previous lessons and preparing for upcoming classes.
Some students may require learning support throughout their entire career at Gresham’s while others may only require extra help occasionally. We do our utmost to offer assistance which best matches the needs of the student, striving to help each child excel. Many students receiving learning support will go on to achieve impressive GCSE and A level results, and we take pride in their achievements.
