Homework and Homework Club

Homework is viewed as integral to successful learning and all pupils are required to fulfil all their homework obligations in order to consolidate and extend learning. All pupils receive a homework planner to record homework tasks. This also acts as a regular source of dialogue between school and parents.

Each Tuesday and Thursday evening between 3.20 p.m. and 4.45 p.m., pupils are invited to attend study support sessions and homework club. Members of staff run these sessions to offer support, to help with homework and all aspects of classwork. A Key Stage 3 homework club and Key Stage 4 Study Support Club run separately.

For Years 10 and 11, members of staff also run many extra GCSE subject specific support classes after school.

Late school buses run on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4.45 pm to provide safe journeys home for all pupils staying on for homework club or for extra-curricular activities.
