Homework Information

For the latest homework for your child's year group please visit the year group pages.

At BPS we believe that a child's learning will benefit when parents and school work together in collaboration. Home learning can take make forms, a visit to the park or a walk with the dog can be just a beneficial as writing a story or painting a picture. We know how busy family life is and we would encourage participation in clubs and other activities outside of school.

In KS 1 we encourage the children to read at least 5 times a week and this should be recorded in their reading records. We also have a small spelling quiz each week and these words will come home. Table and number bonds are important to learn and practice at home regularly.

In Year 3 children are still expected to read regularly and continue to develop their spellings and tables knowledge.

By Year 4 children the expectations are increased slightly with children having 'Learning Log' homework linked to their topic or theme. Learning logs are a grid with a range of suggested activities for your child to choose from over the half term, these are collected in at the end of each half term.

In Year 5 and 6 children should continue to read regularly and spellings will be learnt weekly. They too have 'Learning Log' homework as well as one piece of either literacy or numeracy work.
