Homework

What are our aims for homework?

We believe that the best homework supports learning and it allows students an opportunity to build on their lessons, deepen their understanding, and consolidate learning.

How much homework do we set?

We expect students in years 7-9 to complete around 1 hour of homework every evening.

In years 10 and 11, we expect students to complete a minimum of 2 hours of homework per night. 

Please click the here to see the homework timetable.

What subject homework do we set?

Students receive homework from every subject at least once per week. Homework is set on the same day each week (see homework timetable in homework policy, linked above).

Key Stage 3 Homework 

Year 7, 8 and 9 will complete homework using Sparx/Carousel/Educake/Languagenut. Please see link below.

Key Stage 4 Homework

Year 10 and 11 homework is tailored to every subject and will be a combination of worksheets and online activities. Each teacher designs the homework to the class to make sure students are adequately challenged.
