How can T&S help your child?

Whether Home Educated or in school, Time and Space can help your child in a variety of ways. We support the home education community with a number of small-group activities . This is generating a small and cooperative community of home educators which provides a social setting for learning. We also provide bespoke activities to schools and the LA for children experiencing difficulty in accessing learning.

Time and Space Learning is highly esteemed by schools and parents alike for the effect it has on children's motivation, achievement and confidence.  This can enhance personal, educational and family life which is why it works so well with children from diverse backgrounds.

FOTAS, (Friends Of Time And Space) have recently formed from a group of parents who are determined to promote T&S in these difficult times for education and funding - so you may be seeing this website as a result of contact with them.
