Homework

The support of parents and carers is essential with homework, through encouragement, help and monitoring. This can be done by: 

• monitoring homework and asking them to explain what they have been studying 
• listening to them and reading what they have written 
• checking presentation, handwriting and spelling 
• testing them on learning homework 
• checking Go4Schools 
• suggesting an appropriate time and place, without distractions, to complete their homework on time and to a good standard. 
• praising students when homework is completed on time and to a good standard 

If you feel that your child is spending too long on a piece of homework, please let your child’s teacher know.
