Homework
Research shows that regular completion of homework at secondary level has a significant impact on students’ outcomes. At Cardinal Wiseman we have a consistent whole-school approach to the setting of homework, focussing on developing both student progress and independent learning skills. Homework is set in accordance with the grid below:
Regularity of homework per subject:
|
|
KS3 |
KS4 |
KS5 |
|
Students are set homework as follows:
KS3 students are expected to spend approx. 5 hours a week on homework to support their learning in school |
Each subject sets around one-two hours of homework per week. Part of this time is designated to revision and wider reading.
KS4 students are expected to spend approx. 10-15 hours a week on homework to support their learning in school |
Each subject sets three -five hours of homework per week. In addition, teachers also direct students towards revision and wider reading.
KS5 students are expected to spend approx. 20-30 hours a week on homework or private study to support their learning in school |
