Homework Policy
Homework is set for 30 - 40 mins each night from Monday - Thursday.
- Set homework is loaded on this site. Please click on the page that corresponds to the school week we are in.
- Homework is checked atleast weekly but typically daily.
- Most homework tasks are marked by the student. Some receive verbal feedback only. Some are marked more explicitly by me.
- Homework books are filled out everyday and signed by me. They should also be signed by a parent each night.
- If students are unable to do 30-40 mins then a parent needs to write a brief message in the homework book to let me know.
- Students who do not do homework are either asked to complete it at interval or lunch time or miss out on homework celebration time.
- Access to the internet or a printer is generally not required in order to complete homework but if it is these tools are available at school before or after school.
- I am reluctant to assign extra homework so please don't ask for it. I always encourage reading for enjoyment, watching/reading the news, some physical exercise and conversations with parents about what they are learning as good 'extra' learning for students.
