  The Learning Resources Centre exists to provide increased opportunities for students’
learning activities by giving them access to a wider range of resources than would
normally be available in a single subject area.
Through this it is hoped to encourage
students to develop their study skills and become more independent learners.
Equally
the Learning Resources Centre will give teaching staff new opportunities to promote
alternative learning strategies and contribute to the delivery of cross-curricular
themes such as ICT.

The Learning Resources Centre is open every day during term time from 8.30 am to
1.00 pm and 1.30 pm to 4.30 pm. It is closed during morning break.

 The Learning Resources Centre is located on the first floor of the Languages Block.
Access is via the bridge from the main school so that students may leave their bags
tucked in tidily under the handrail bearing in mind that this is also a fire exit.
The Learning Resources Centre consists of a main study and reading area which is
divided up into bays. There is a variety of furniture suitable for quiet reading
and written work together with some study booths for individual use. One of these
is equipped with a tape recorder and two pairs of headphones. The connexions library
is located at one end of the main room.

 The Learning Resources Centre Manager is responsible for the day to day running
of the Learning Resources Centre.
During lesson time they are available to assist
individual students, or small groups by prior arrangement, in using the resources.
The Learning Resource Manager is helped at lunchtime by duty teaching staff.
