Supported Study Programmes

Supported Study

Supported Study or Out of Hours Learning provides additional learning opportunities and support for learners outside the normal timetabled classroom hours. Information regarding current Supported Study opportunities for students sitting examination level subjects can be found on this page. If the subject you are looking for does not feature, please contact those faculties directly for further information.

Small Group Tutoring

In order to give the highest level of support to pupils preparing for SQA exams we are currently engaging around 40 teachers within the school to work with small groups of pupils every week. These sessions will focus specifically on each pupil's needs for development and aims to hone knowledge, skills and exam technique to give the best chance of success. This programme is being funded through the Pupil Equity Fund to enable as many pupils to reach their potential through bespoke tutoring from hand-picked subject specialists. Research evidence suggests that this is one of the most effective strategies to raise attainment amongst pupils within the senior phase.

Family Learning

Family Learning at Larbert offers parents and carers the opportunity to engage with their child’s learning through fun and exciting programmes developed and lead by our teaching staff.
