"How to Help Improve Your Child's Memory"

We’re excited to announce that Elevate Education's next free webinar will be focusing on Memory.

Here’s what we’ll be covering on the night: 

✅ How memory actually works (and how it has nothing to do with brain capacity) 

✅ The most effective environments to assist in memorisation 

✅ 3 techniques you can implement overnight to improve revision

Sanctions will apply for any student using their mobile phone whilst at school.
