At Springwood Heath Primary, we appreciate how important links are between home and school and the need for us to work together to ensure a good education for all children. It is for this reason that we provide all children with homework to enable them to practise skills and learning they have already covered in school and we believe that homework is an essential part of pupil’s learning.
Homework will be carefully planned to extend learning, enhance and reinforce skills and understanding and allow children to consolidate and improve their skills further. Sometimes the aim is to repeat something done in class as a practise exercise. On other occasions, the homework will ask children to apply their learning to a new context. In line with National Curriculum requirements, homework is set and children are encouraged to, and expected to establish good homework habits from the beginning of their school life.
