First Half Term
Second Half Term |
| |
This homework is intended as an extended piece of research and
writing, to be undertaken throughout the half term. In addition,
homework will be set most weeks by the class teacher on the
given night, to be completed by the following lesson. This work
will relate to the work being done in lessons at the time. The
half termly project work is, therefore, to be seen as extension
work to the weekly homework, and not as an alternative. If students
are finding difficulty doing both, priority should be given
to the weekly homework. If students finish the weekly homework
quickly, then the rest of their homework time should be spent
on the project.
