Homework
Homework is used to support long term retention of knowledge. It will focus on the core knowledge of what has been taught and be an opportunity for retrieval practice
- teachers will fully explain the purpose of homework when set
- homework will often be integrated into classroom activities, for example our Do Now activities may be an extension of what students have read or carried out at home
- homework may also be an opportunity for extended independent practice on taught knowledge
- teachers will hold high expectations on the standard of homework submitted
Homework is set as follows:
- Key Stage 3
Maths, English and Science will be set once a week and all other subjects will be set once a fortnight - Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5
All subjects will set homework at least once per week
