Homework and Additional Resources
Across the year groups, teachers will set homework as appropriate. Homework will be set to enhance learning not simply for the sake of setting homework. This may include written work, research or revision. In addition, students are encouraged to:
- Read regularly and independently at home in order to develop their understanding of literary and non-fiction texts and to expand their vocabulary.
- Discuss the content of their lessons and to further research the issues being studied in the classroom to broaden their understanding.
- Read the daily broadsheet newspapers (or their associated Apps).
- To spell correctly and to check all homework thoroughly for spelling, punctuation and grammar.
All students in years 7, 8 and 9 are encouraged to complete the English activities in their Learning Beyond the Classroom booklets.
