Study support, or out of school hours learning, covers activities which take place outside normal lessons and which have a learning focus. Participation is voluntary. Study support can happen before or after the school day, at lunch and break times, at weekends, and during school holidays.

Activities can include:

• breakfast clubs - which may include a mix of activities and food;
• homework clubs - a calm, informal place to do homework
• subject-based activities - such as language or science clubs;
• opportunities to pursue particular interests - such as chess, ICT, or art and design;
• creative activities - music, DJ workshops, street dance, steel bands, drama;
• physical education and sports;
• learning about learning - advice of how to study/revise, and thinking skills.
