Homework

We expect children to reinforce and extend the learning they are doing in the Academy at home. To this end, we set regular home learning tasks. The amount of time children are expected to spend on formal learning at home increases as they go through the Academy. Children are expected to read, learn spellings and times tables daily.

In addition, they are given tasks to reinforce current topics at the Academy including in maths and English. These may be extended tasks over a period of time.

With schools shut and families on lockdown indoors, the coronavirus crisis can be confusing for kids – and that’s why Grufallo illustrator Axel Scheffler has teamed up with experts to create a free book to explain it.

Coronavirus: A Book for Children aims to answer all the burning questions that kids aged five to nine years old will have been pestering parents with over the last few weeks.
