Homework
"The evidence shows that the impact of homework, on average, is five months' additional progress in learning." Education Endowment Foundation, based on research published in August 2021.
Our approach to homework empowers students to become Knowledgeable and Expert Learners by helping them to build effective study habits and developing their independence. It also enables families, students and school to work together to ensure limitless possibilities for all. Homework activities are linked to new knowledge and skills taught in school to enable students to know and remember more, preparing them for examination success.
Home learning booklets or project work may be provided for some subjects as well as the use of online learning platforms such as Sparx Maths, SAM learning and Language Nut which provide students instant, valuable feedback on their strengths and where to improve.
The table below gives an overview of the homework set for each year group by subject.
