What our students say:

“I originally returned to the basic education service to improve my spelling. I knew that I had other needs, but I wouldn’t have been able to name them. I had learned techniques to hide - other ways of doing things. I have gained confidence. I am now involved in many activities that require reading, writing and spelling, for example the parents’ committee in the local primary school and I feel confident in doing so.”
