Homework is a vital part of a child’s education. It provides opportunities to further their understanding of work they have done in class and also enables them to develop important skills such as the ability to study and work independently.  Homework is set regularly. We encourage parents and carers to check their child’s planner (every night if possible) or on ‘Class charts’ so that they can look through their homework with them.  We believe that this helps provide parents and carers with a good understanding of the work taking place in school and leads to better outcomes for students.

We recognise the importance of homework. In order to cater for the majority of our pupils who attend after school classes at their local Madrasah (evening Islamic school), we have ensured homework is both suitable and practical. Core subjects will set a piece of homework each week and the pupils will be given sufficient time to complete their homework. Allowing plenty of time during the the week and the weekend to complete. 

Homework will generally be set on ‘Class Charts’ which is a very easy and convenient procedure for staff to set and record homework but more importantly for parents to monitor and for pupils to complete and keep on top of and complete their homework.
