Homework

At the start of each academic year a letter is sent to parents to explain the homework procedure for that year group in detail, including the use of the homework book and ideas for supporting your child's learning at home. For a guide to how much homework will be provided for pupils, please see details below.

Reading

Reading for approximately 10 to 15 minutes per night is essential for ensuring children can develop their reading stamina and discussions about books help children to understand what they have read and to learn new vocabulary
