Ideas of what to include in the card or letter could be writing about your experience of COVID-19, your plans for the future, books or TV shows you enjoy, and tips on passing the time. Once completed students should simply sign off with their name and ‘from Merstham Park’

Homework

Homework plays a key role in developing childrens’ skills, knowledge and enjoyment of particular subjects. It is designed to: 

  • extend knowledge 

  • improve independence and resilience

  • encourage students to read widely and deeply 

  • help ensure excellent progress


 

Homework setting and frequency:

  • Students need to record the task and the deadline in their Student Planner.

  • It is set by subject teachers according to the frequency for their subject, as follows:

  • In Years 7 and 8 English, Maths, Science, ITP and Art set homework once a week and other subjects set homework every two weeks.

  • In Year 9 English, Maths, Science and Art set homework once a week and other subjects set homework every two weeks.

  • Homework instructions will also be visible using the Classcharts app and website.


 

To ensure Homework is completed to a high standard, students should:

  • check they have understood the task and made a note of the due date.

  • ask their teacher what they should do to achieve their best.

  • complete homework to the best of their ability.

  • extend their interests by reading widely around the topics.

  • attend Homework Club if they need more support. Homework Club is available everyday in A1 before school from 8.00 - 8.30 and after school from 3.15 - 4.15. Computers are available to use for online tasks and all students are welcome to attend.
