As young people
move from primary to secondary school the skills required to do well at school
change. This weekly dedicated
secondary school course allows young people to come together and grow in
confidence in areas such as essay writing, debating, study skills and life
skills that will take them through secondary school, Further and Higher
education and into the working world.
Succeed in secondary course
At Explore Learning
we understand to need to keep young people motivated and so we use dynamic and
youth-orientated topics to practise skills that enable your child to succeed in
secondary school. Some of the examples of our Succeed In Secondary lessons are
Komodo Dragon’s Den where, based on the popular BBC Television programme, the
young people work on a 4-week project in which they have to design a product, understand more about
marketing it, agree though team work and deliver a selling pitchto a group of ‘Dragons’.
Other sessions include:
Discursive essay writing
Summary writing
Debating Presentations
Note-taking skills
Newspaper/Journalistic writing
Understanding budgets
