Home Learning Expectations
The College recommends that students complete homework each night as outlined in the table below. If students are completing an amount of homework that is over this recommended amount then please do contact your Head of Year (HOY) or the Head of Primary, as it is not our aim to exhaust and stress out our students with excessive homework demands.
If there is a reason that set homework cannot be completed, then please write a brief note in the student diary or contact the teacher to explain the reason why this is the case.
The recommended nightly amount of homework and revision for each year level varies. Please use the below as a guide.
