Home Learning
At Bursley Academy we believe that homework enables parents to be involved with their child’s educational life and provides opportunities for them to support and encourage their child’s learning. Homework provides children with an opportunity to develop responsibility by meeting deadlines, taking pride in the work they produce at home, and extending their school-based learning.
We also believe that homework should be a positive experience and linked to the learning that has taken place in the classroom. This allows pupils to consolidate what they have already learnt. Work will be set in a timely manner that enables pupils to dedicate enough time to complete the homework organised around other out-of-school activities and family commitments.
