The Romford Schools Programme
Since our launch in Romford we’ve had the pleasure of building great working relationships with many of the local schools, providing fun and free maths and literacy workshops and assemblies! So far we have visited Parklands, James Oglethorpe, Hacton Junior School, Dunningford, Ayloff, Five Elms, Wykeham, Rush Green, Edwin Lambert, The Mawney, Gidea Park Primary, William Bellamy, Crowlands, Crownfields and Benhurst.
If your school or after-school club would like to be involved in our free numeracy or literacy workshops, please contact Louise on 01708 767819.
What teachers think about our free Schools Programme…
“The Maths activities related well to individual abilities, ages and topics the children have been learning. Explore Learning reinforces and consolidates their understanding and encourages them to want to achieve. The tutors interacted with the children with a very positive approach, which kept all the children to task and involved”.
Juliette Owens, Yrs 3 & 4 Teacher, Gidea Park Primary.
“The children thought the interactive activities were great fun as Explore provided a different approach in a less formal environment. The tutor’s enthusiasm made the children’s experience a worth while event and the fun approach was enjoyed by the children”.
Mr Bromage, Year 3 Teacher, Gidea Park Primary.
Free Workshops
In addition to the work that we have been doing in local schools, Explore Learning Romford have been building links with other community groups, such as Rainbows, Libraries and the YMCA. We will be offering further literacy workshops throughout the year, so if you are a Brownie or Scouts leader please get in touch to find out how we can work together.

What our members think...
"Explore Learning really helps with my Maths and English at school. My favourite thing is that you can win Lizard cards for trying hard at your work."
Tryna Khetani, Year 9
"Harriet's confidence in using different maths techniques to solve problems has really grown since she has been coming to the centre. The benefit of working in smaller tutor groups is immense. The tutors are really upbeat and their enthusiastic approach really engages the children."
