Surf Coast Secondary College
Literacy and Numeracy Homework Requirements
Students in years 8-10 have completed diagnostic assessments through Education Perfect (EP) which has generated an individualised homework program based on the students individual learning needs. As per the SCSC homework policy students are expected to complete the following number of hours across the term on your literacy and numeracy tasks depending on the year level. NB: Yr 9 have a shorter period in term 1 due to NAPLAN.
- Year 8 = 45 minutes each of literacy and numeracy
- Year 9 = 60 minutes each of literacy and numeracy
- Year 10 = 60 minutes each of literacy and numeracy
SURF teachers will be monitoring student progress throughout the term and students will be requested for ‘catch up’ on Wednesday’s if they are falling behind.
Students should start completing these tasks ASAP. If students are not sure where to start, they can check out this handy SCREEN RECORDING that highlights how to get to their tasks.

Numeracy Learning Specialist.
