A NEW English and maths tuition centre opens in Bradford tomorrow, creating 20 new jobs for the district.

Explore Learning — for children aged five to 14 — will be based in Ingleby Road, Allerton.

Its Centre director Liz Sewell said: “We are thrilled to be opening our new centre in Bradford. The feedback we’ve had from children, parents and schools has been really positive so farand the nearby centres in Leeds and Sheffield have gone down a storm so we’re hoping ours will do too. “We will be working closely with the local community to provide creative writing and maths workshops as part of our annual National Young Writers’ and National Young Mathematicians’ Awards, all with the aim of helping children fulfil their true potential.”

Head of Curriculum at Explore Learning Carey Ann Dodah added: “Children of all abilities come to us for extra help in maths and English or to enjoy learning in a new, social environment.”
