Children Overcoming Domestic Abuse (CODA)
Children Overcoming Domestic Abuse (CODA) Programme is for children and mothers who have experienced domestic abuse. They are now accepting referrals for mothers with children in years 4 and 5 of primary school in September only.
Free English and Maths Tuition
We are a charity that runs free after school English and Maths tuition classes, and we will be running a programme in Perry Vale in partnership with L&Q. Given the location of your school, a lot of your pupils will be eligible for the tuition so we wanted to see if it would be possible to advertise the programme directly to the families.
To give you a little more context, at Tutors United we train and hire university students to provide free English and Maths tuition to pupils in Year 4, 5 and 6. Our tuition is developed by qualified teachers and supports the National Curriculum and runs from 4 – 6pm so it does not interfere with the school day and our programme is fully funded, so it is completely free for families.
