"I would like to thank you for the successful study skills day...it was an extremely enjoyable way of motivating and supporting our students at this crucial stage of their school career. All four presenters were enthusiastic, helpful and organised. They managed to facilitate a wide range of learners most effectively so that the students were as entertained as they were challenged"
This motivating and challenging one day seminar mirrors our study skills workshops with one key difference - The incorporation of 'Thinking Skills'.

Based on the work of renowned psychologist Edward de Bono, we introduce pupils to a range of thinking skills that enable pupils to solve problems effectively and think more independently. These skills are extremely useful at school and in life beyond school.
