The Study Support team is part of the Curriculum Service within the Education Department. We are responsible for the support and development of all study support and out of hours activities across the City of Nottingham .

This includes activities such as homework and study class, sport and outdoor activities, creative arts, Culture Plus Community Learning Centres (supplementary schools) Playing for Success Study Centres and any activity previously designated as out of hours learning. In order to bring this vast range of opportunities and activities under our umbrella we shall, following DfES guidance be using the generic term Study Support.
