Homework

Homework is a very important part of a child’s education and can add much to a child’s development. We recognise that the time and resources available, limit the educational experience that any school by itself can provide; children benefit greatly therefore from the mutual support of parents and teachers in encouraging them to learn both at home and at school.

Indeed we see homework as an important way of establishing a successful dialogue between teachers and parents. One of the aims of our school is for children to develop as independent learners. We believe that homework is one of the main ways in which children can acquire the skill of independent learning.

The aims and objectives of homework are:

  • To enable pupils to make maximum progress in their academic and social development;
  • To help pupils develop the skills of an independent learner;
  • To promote a partnership between home and school in supporting each child’s learning;
  • To enable all aspects of the curriculum to be covered in sufficient depth;
  • To provide educational experiences not possible in school;
  • To consolidate and reinforce learning done in school and to allow children to practise skills taught in lessons;
  • To help children develop good work habits for the future.
