Homework reinforces the work done in class and forms a really important part of the pupils’ learning. Homework can vary in content from subject to subject. It can be a written task, reading, research, extension or revision work. As parents and carers, you can support the children’s learning by:

• Regularly checking planners to ensure that homework is being written down. At the end of every lesson pupils should indicate whether or not homework has been set and note down the details. Please sign the bottom of the page of the Planner each Friday.
  
  
• Checking that completed homework appears to be of a good standard. Encourage children to do homework at certain times each evening so that it becomes routine. Help children to organise themselves by not “putting off” to another occasion.
  

Please contact school if you have any concerns regarding homework issues.

NB:

• Teachers in some subjects may set longer pieces of homework, which may last several weeks
• Homework facilities are available for children after school if you so wish
• If children fail to complete homework, parents will be informed.

Pupils need to have the correct equipment and books for each subject. We would really appreciate your support in ensuring that children come to school properly equipped, as follows:

• Pupils should bring a bag to school to carry books and equipment
• Pupils must have, as a minimum, a pen and a pencil, but should also have other stationery items ie rubber, ruler, sharpener
• Pupils must bring specialist materials to certain subjects eg full PE kit, mathematics equipment
  
  

During the year, you will receive a single sheet report informing you of your son’s progress as follows:
Year 7 - January

You will be invited to attend a Parents’ Evening to discuss your son’s progress with his subject teachers. We would like you to bring your son to this meeting so that he can hear the comments made and advice given. If you have any concerns about your son’s progress at any time, please do not wait for Parents’ Evening. You can discuss any issues at any time – just ring school to make an appointment via the Head of Year, so that problems can be resolved immediately.

Parents’ Evening will be held as follows:

Year 7 - May
Year 8 - March
Year 9- July
