Birthdays are important, and SPARK Education Centre in the Oxford Road celebrates it’s first anniversary on the 15th of March. During this first year SPARK has made a real impact on the local community through its services to local schools, providing cover teachers and supported learning for out of school pupils, and especially with its homework club.

The location of the SPARK centre in the gatehouse of the old Battle Hospital was a conscious choice by the senior teachers to place a learning centre at the heart of the Oxford Road community, where children can enjoy learning in a calm, quiet and comfortable atmosphere. In fact it is this calm atmosphere which is the magic ingredient in encouraging children to enjoy learning.

Besides a full suite of thirty computers with state of the art learning packages, Reading parents have been particularly pleased  for the help provided by SPARKs ‘  experienced specialist subject teachers able to cover  all the main GCSE and A Levels, with one to one tuition raising those essential examination grades.

To celebrate their first birthday on the 15th of March, SPARK has planned an Open Day for parents and children, all day on Sunday the 15th of this month, followed by a whole week FREE  Homework Club, from Monday  15th to Friday 19th  During this week children will be able to drop in with their homework between 3.30 pm and  6.00 pm completely free of charge, and discover how to make learning fun once again.
