TIMETABLE 2010-11 ADDITIONAL NOTES

HOMEWORK AT KEY STAGE 5

At Key Stage 5 students will be set homework at the subject teacher’s discretion and this may take a range of forms, including coursework, timed exam questions and essay writing. Several pieces of homework may be set in one subject area per week.

EMMAUS CENTRE

For those students working in the Emmaus Centre, homework will be set daily. Students will be expected to spend 30 minutes completing it.

LITERACY SUPPORT

For those students who require additional support for their literacy skills they will be set homework on a weekly basis and will be required to read for at least 15 minutes each day. Literacy programme homework booklets provide and explain homework tasks.

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Students are responsible for recording their homework in their planners including the date that homework should be returned to the teacher. Students are responsible for making sure they understand the work that has been set and asking for additional support from the teacher in advance of the deadline. Planners should be brought to school each day and should be available for use in every lesson. Students are expected to complete their homework to the best of their ability and to hand it in on time. If homework is completed electronically it should be printed off and handed to the teacher.

Parents have a valuable role in supporting and encouraging participation in extended learning in all its forms, including homework. Family members can help guide and participate in extended learning or homework as students are not expected to complete tasks or activities entirely independently, unless directed specifically by the teacher.

The education of our students is a shared responsibility between home and school. The availability of extended learning activities through the school and the homework timetable provide a vehicle for establishing a working partnership.

Homework or extended learning activities undertaken away from school can be undertaken through any language and students are encouraged to use their home language if they wish. (Written responses will need to be in the language intended by the teacher.)

We value the contributions, successes and concerns raised by all and urge families to contact the school with these.

Parents are expected to sign the school planner weekly to show that they are aware of the homework set.
