Homework is any kind of learning that takes place out of school. We value it as a working partnership between home and school which supports our children’s learning. We aim to ensure that all homework is purposeful and enjoyable.

Through setting homework, we aim to:

• Encourage independence, self-discipline and good learning habits.
• Consolidate work taught in school and therefore raise attainment levels.
• Encourage and provide opportunities for parents/carers to become involved in children’s learning.
• Build pupil confidence by encouraging the discussion of schoolwork and learning with parents.
• Encourage pupils to take responsibility for their own learning and completing tasks.
• Supports parents to evaluate their child’s progress.

 The amount and type of homework will vary depending on the age of the child.

“I am always happy with the information that I get from the school about my child. I know exactly what my child needs and what topics we can work on at home.”
