KS4 Homework

Homework is set weekly on a Monday via the My Child at School App (MCAS). Pupils are also able to see this on their pupil version. Pupils can access the work on any device via a single Google login. If your child does not have easy access to the internet, they are more than welcome to join Homework Club after school, where they can use laptops and receive support from our Learning Mentors. 

In addition to home learning, we encourage all pupils to read at home at least three times a week. In addition, from time-to-time, we may set optional learning activities, reading lists and suggested tasks or home learning projects from other subject areas to stretch and challenge pupils in their learning outside of the classroom and develop a love of learning.
