Key Stage 4

In Year 10 and 11, homework needs to support students to develop a wider range of skills and so looks not only at retrieval, but extended writing, exam technique practice and also encourages them to develop more independence by reading around or researching a particular topic or topics.

Homework plays a vital role in your child’s education and our strategy is to provide opportunities for students to:

  • Help recall facts from memory.
  • Practice tasks they have done in lessons.
  • Prepare students for upcoming lessons.
  • Build confidence, responsibility, independence, organisation and time management skills.
  • Boost their progress and outcomes.

Below are details of the homework schedule for all students in Year 10 and Year 11.
