Library Services for Young People
Homework
Clubs
Newham Libraries run Homework Clubs in all
10 static libraries. The clubs are run by library staff and are
free of charge. They operate on an open access basis.
Homework Clubs are run term time only, every week
(including half term breaks) and provide study support to children
and young people aged 7-14. The sessions are 2 hours long and
incorporate study help by working on given homework, in addition
activity and work sheets are supplied.
Specially recruited homework club helpers provide children and
young people with homework help and advice, national curriculum
resources, free Internet and other library resources.
Children and young people are given priority in the use of
computers during the times of the club, with staff guidance on
which websites to utilise. Children are also able to print their
homework for free.
Homework clubs contribute to the notion of Reader Development thus
increasing children and young people's confidence and enjoyment of
reading by opening up reading choices, offering opportunities for
people to share their reading experience and by raising the status
of reading as a creative activity.
