Homework is an important part of a child’s learning and is given a high priority in Cardinal Newman High School.
Homework is given on a regular basis in order to:
* consolidate work done in class.
* provide preparation for new lessons.
* encourage habits of independent study.
* allow parents to judge how well their child is progressing.
The amount of homework given varies according to the pupil’s age and the subjects being studied.
There will be an increase in quantity, complexity and time needed for completion of homework as pupils progress through the year groups.
