PUPILS can get help with their homework at afterschool clubs across the borough.

The services have been set up following a surge in requests from students.

Staff members will be on hand to help pupils find the information they need to do their homework using library resources and the internet.

Students using the library homework resource will also be able to get up to four free printouts.

The homework sessions take place at Bury Library on Tuesdays, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm, and Wednesdays, from 3.30pm to 6pm; Tottington Library on Tuesdays, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm; Prestwich Library on Mondays and Thursdays, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm; Unsworth Library on Thursdays, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm; and Whitefield Library on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 3.20pm to 5.30pm.

An online homework help service is also available on Mondays and Thursdays, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm.
