From time to time children
will be given homework. This
may be a piece of writing
to complete, an exercise to
give extra practice, some
research or a learning task.
A more formal homework timetable
operates in Years 5 and 6.
In all of these tasks parental
encouragement and involvement
are invaluable. We operate
Paired Reading in various
parts of the school and this
scheme involves children working
with parents at home. We believe
homework is valuable in that
it develops individual study
habits which will be much
needed later and it is an
important link between home
and school. While expecting
homework assignments to be
completed, we would hope children
would still be able to take
part in a choice of Cubs,
Brownies, sports or hobbies
and to have some opportunity
to relax after a hard day's
work at school!
