Time for home learning

The quality of the home based learning tasks is more important than the length of time that they might take.

The following times reflect broadly how many hours students in Key Stages 3, 4 and 5 should be spending on home based learning.

 Year 7: 45 to 60 minutes per day

 Year 8: 60 to 90 minutes per day

 Year 9: 1 to 2 hours per day

Year 10: 1.5 to 2.5 hours per day

Year 11: 1.5 to 2.5 hours per day

Year 12: 16 hours per week

Year 13: 20 hours per week

Expectations of home learning

We expect students to:

  • write down their home learning assignment in their planners, noting the date it is due.
  • check details on SMHW
  • set aside enough time to complete their home learning to the best of their ability, preferably as soon after it is set as possible.
  • complete their home learning in an appropriate environment for study, away from distractions.
  • hand in their home learning in class on the day it is due, or to the teacher as soon after as possible if they are absent on the day.

We expect teaching staff to:

  • set home learning frequently and regularly, mark it promptly with comments and targets that will help pupils and students progress if acted upon.
  • write the home learning task on the whiteboard and provide students with enough time to write it in their planners.Teachers should also log the task on SMHW
  • set meaningful home learning activities that will help students build connections between what they have learned in individual lessons.
  • set activities that are differentiated, inclusive, appropriate, challenging, and which vary in type and style.
  • Sanction pupils who fail to complete home based learning adequately or who fail to hand it in on time (H1) Failure to complete homework will normally result in an after-school detention (H2)

We expect tutors to:

  • check that pupils have a planner (or temporary replacement if it is lost) every morning.
  • check home learning diaries every week and ensure students are recording their work. 

We expect parents to:

  • check planners every week and assist their child with planning and organising their home based learning.
  • check and support home learning through monitoring tasks on SMHW
  • provide their child with a suitable learning environment in which to complete their home based learning, without distractions.
  • look at their child‘s exercise books and support their child‘s learning by helping them to act on the comments and targets provided by staff.
