Home Learning Intent

At Hadlow Primary School, we believe that home learning is an important aspect of our curriculum offer. Home learning seeks not only to consolidate core knowledge and prior learning, but to extend and enhance the curriculum offer in school.

We intend for all home learning to be purposeful, accessible and enjoyable for all. The range of activities offer our pupils variety and ownership, whilst giving a clear framework and consistent expectations.

For home learning to make a positive difference to children's progress there needs to be a genuine, transparent and supportive partnership between pupils, teachers and families. When this partnership is effective, pupils develop the attitudes and skills that they need to become ambitious, inspired and resilient lifelong learners.

 

Home Learning Implementation

 

Home learning should be a positive experience, which is shared by both parents and children. Although we expect the finished learning to be produced independently by the children, parents support is essential to help children with discussing, planning and resourcing their learning. Home learning should never be too onerous nor should it ever create stress within the pupil’s family. If parents have any concerns they should not hesitate to contact the school for extra support.
