Homework Timetable
In response to parental feedback, the content,range and timings of mandatory homework have been reviewed. Learning in every subject can be significantly enhanced by undertaking work out of school. To support pupils a Homework club runs daily from 2.30-3.30 pm. (Please see After School Clubs)
Any pupil who fails to submit two homeworks per term in a subject will be issued a detention which will run from 2.30 – 3.30pm. A letter will be sent home with the pupil informing parents of the subject and date.
