Homework
Homework gives parents and carers the opportunity to understand what their children are learning at school as well as a chance to support learning at home. It is our policy to give children a manageable amount of homework so that it does not become a burden for parents and children alike. If parents and carers need any help or support with homework, then please see the class teacher in the first instance - they will be happy to help. Below is an overview of the homework in each year group.
Subject | Homework |
Home learning activity choices | In Reception and Y1 Autumn Term, parents and pupils are encouraged to complete home learning activities. |
Reading | All pupils are expected to read regularly at home at least 3 times per week, with a record made in their planner. This is a very important strand to pupil homework. |
Spelling | In KS1, tricky words are sent home for pupils to learn In Years KS2, spellings are given to pupils to study, for a test in school. |
Grammar and Punctuation | In Years 5 and 6, Grammar and punctuation homework is given to reinforce work that is being completed in school. |
Maths | Y2: Y2 Book Y3-6: Homework sheet to reinforce work that is being completed in school Y3/4/5: Multiplication tables practise also |
Most homework will be given out on THURSDAY to be returned the following WEDNESDAY. Year 6 maths is given out on a MONDAY for the following MONDAY.
We no longer give out the 'Puzzle Homework.' However, if you wish to encourage your child to complete extra-curricular homework it will supported and championed by their class teacher. A list of suggested ideas will be on this web-page in due course.
Thank you for your continued support.
