Learning Support

Welcome to the Learning Support department.  Our purpose is to make sure that everyone fulfills their potential at Bishop Ullathorne and beyond.  Our teaching assistants provide in-class support, small group interventions and mentoring.  We are based in a separate building, known as 'The Hut' where students can come during social times and where we run homework club after school.  Our school dog, Rosie, is based in the Hut and is always willing to make friends, with those who want to. We look forward to welcoming you and finding out how we can help you reach your potential.
