Bishops offers additional academic support in a number of subjects. This opportunity provides more individualised support to boys who have specific concerns/lack of understanding that they would like clarified.
While it is always best to deal with problems as they arise in lessons, it is acknowledged that this is not always possible. Often problems only begin to surface when boys are working on homework or studying for tests or exams.
Boys should ask their own teacher for assistance or they can come to the support classes with specific problems or questions about a topic so that the support teacher can offer help with that problem/area of concern. Boys should bring pens, paper, laptops and their textbooks or notes with them.
Boys do not need to sign up for a Support session – they can simply attend during the following times, unless where stated ’email first’, in which case they email their teachers for a slot.
