Homework
HOMEWORK
Study outside the classroom is considered as an important and integral part of all children's learning. Homework is a very important way of allowing homes to support children's education.
The school sets homework for the following main purposes:
-
Consolidation, or practice, of work already done in class.
-
Preparation for coming classwork.
-
Introducing tasks which extend beyond work already done in class, but build upon it.
-
Testing pupils' understanding of work covered or competence in skills. Making use of materials and sources of information not available in the classroom.
-
Enabling classwork to concentrate on activities which require the teacher's presence.
-
Encouraging partnership between parents and teachers. Allowing parents to become more actively involved in their child's formal education.
-
Providing a means by which parents can see the sort of tasks which the child is doing in school, and by which they can assess progress.
