Our Homework Policy Includes:

• Snack/Meal time is relaxed and leisurely to enable children to unwind, socialise and discuss daily events.

• Staff will contribute to a quiet relaxed atmosphere during homework sessions and encourage children to do the same and will be there to help children with their homework. However staff will not be responsible for signing children’s homework as it is very important that parents check each child’s homework each day.

• Each child will get sufficient time to do their homework, but no longer than the recommended time advised for their age group and by their teacher.

• The After School Service recognises the importance of the parent's role in homework support and encourages them to check work completed, listen to reading again and play an active role in the homework supervision and support of their child.
