Each half term we will set an optional, whole school, home learning task. This will be shared with all families via Parent Mail and will be centered around the celebration of a particular key event. The task will often be art and craft based and all submission will be displayed in a central area as part of a whole school focus. Details of each half termly task can be found below.
In line with Government legislation we believe a sensible programme of weekly home activities should apply. Our full policy can be found here. Our allocation for each year group recommends the following:
Nursery = 20 to 30 minutes per week sharing a book and enjoying nursery rhymes.
Reception = 45 minutes per week. Daily reading. Phonics practice. Number recall.
Key Stage One = 1 hour per week. Daily reading. Phonics practice. Spelling work. Number recall. Times tables.
Lower Key Stage Two = 2 hours per week. Daily reading. Spelling work. Times tables.
Upper Key Stage Two = 2 hours per week. Daily reading. Spelling work. Times tables.
