At Bournville, we aim to offer all students of all abilities the opportunity to make accelerated progress by completing tasks outside our school’s core teaching hours. Our homework tasks are designed to consolidate learning that has taken place in the classroom and to provide research opportunities where students can use reference materials and the internet to increase their knowledge and understanding of a particular topic.
Our homework policy ensures that teachers set homework when it is purposeful and meaningful. The tasks our teachers set aim to extend understanding beyond the classroom and foster and promote a lifelong love of learning.
All homework is recorded on Satchel One and students can see at a glance, what homework has been set. Students in all years can use their school planner to record homework tasks. This year we are seeing an improvement in the quality of homework that is being produced and the majority of students are handing it in on time. It is great to see this ambition and dedication from students,
Here, Year 8 have completed homework on ‘Apartheid’ for Miss Keeber to help them to understand the book ‘Noughts and Crosses’ which they are studying this term.
