The
Ace Base Study Support Centre will seek to provide opportunities
for young people to become self motivated learners and
to believe in themselves and their own ability to achieve.
The centre will help young people to practise key skills
which will enable them to learn more effectively, think
more creatively and study more systematically.

Centre Background
As
part of the Government's drive to raise standards in
education, the Department for Education and Skills launched
a Playing for Success out of school hours learning initiative.
The initiative invites Local Education Authorities and
sports clubs to establish and develop Study Suport Centres
at sports grounds. The Study Support Centre uses the
sports environment as a motivational tool to raise pupil
achievement and Key Stage two and three in the areas
of literacy, numeracy and ICT. Located at the Nottingham
Tennis Centre, the Ace Base Study Support Centre was
opened in 2003.
