If your child’s homework is not handed in, they will not receive Reward play on a Friday.

9. Homework support
Children should try to complete their homework independently.
If they do require support it would be helpful if you could use a different colour pen to show the support you gave.
If children are spending more than 45mins on their homework then they need to speak to the teacher the following day for support.
Please check that homework has been completed to a high standard and sign their homework (Reading) diaries daily.
If you have a short message that you would like to pass on these can be written in your child’s homework diary.

10. Reading
Children are expected to read every day and it needs to be signed in their homework diaries every day.
It is very beneficial for children to be listened to by an adult; however they may read independently, but understanding will still need to be checked.
If your child's homework diary is not signed, they will miss 10 minutes during play to make up for that time.

11. P.E.
P.E. kits should be brought in every Monday morning and brought home every Friday to be washed.
If children are attending a club please ensure P.E. kits are returned the next day.
All items of clothing need to be labelled.
