Post: UK Extended Services
By 2010, schools (in primary and special schools) are
expected to provide extended services. Also, as research
carried out by Ofsted found that arts and other learning
activities can transform attitudes, build self-esteem and
encourage more effective learning. Extra-curricular
activities can also improve motivation and attendance and
have a positive impact on learning. Schools are not
expected to provide these services alone; they should work
in partnership with other schools, community
organizations, agencies, signposting existing services,
etc.
Recently, I have come across TLC Kids which have spent 10+
years developing their proven proprietary curriculum
especially for extended service offerings. Their
programmes provide a perfect academic, personal and
creative balance to maintain a more long-term, sustained
approach to support learning, address motivation and
standards for primary students. For more information,
