Homework at Southall School
- Staff and pupils regard homework as an integral part of the curriculum – it is planned and prepared alongside all other programmes of learning.
- The foundations of effective homework practices are established early on and develop progressively across the key stages.
- Effective homework strategies support a range of settings in which pupils learn, for example: through parental support and guidance, joint family learning tasks and independent learning.
- Homework completed well is acknowledged and praised.
We have set up this section of our website to support you and your child with learning activities at home. You will see that there are pages for each Year Group.
In addition to homework there are also some general requirements of every child:
- Regular Reading and Spelling homework is set.
- Students should practise their times tables and perform simple numeracy tasks as they arise at home, for example adding coins or weighing ingredients.
