‘Practice of what is taught’ 

At The Castle School we value homework as we know the benefits it brings to our students. The Educational Endowment Foundation suggests students can make 5 months additional progress with regular purposeful homework and we achieve this by practicing what is taught. 

Each student will be given a homework booklet to complete their homework in and a knowledge organiser booklet with the necessary knowledge to help them complete their homework. 

Each student should spend 30 minuteson each subject following the timetable in the homework booklet. Their homework booklet will be checked (which will likely be their next lesson) and the knowledge will be referred to in lessons. The library is available from 8 am to 5 pmbefore school, at break time or lunch time and after school 

Here is the homework summarised from each subject:
