Homework

Homework is considered an important part in helping children attain the highest standards.  A carefully considered homework policy has been implemented at Bletchingdon School.  At the start of each term, every parent receives brief details of the areas of study to be undertaken by their children in relation to the National Curriculum.  The following table provides an indication of the types of regular homework activity expected for children at this school.
