​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Homework at Sherwood aims to:

  • Consolidate learning
  • Establish good study habits
  • Build patterns of behaviour for lifelong learning beyond the classroom
  • Involve family members in learning​

We believe homework should be:

  • Related to class work
  • Purposeful and relevant
  • Varied and differentiated
  • Designed to develop independence ​

We all have a role to play

​Teachers will:

  • ​Provide purposeful and achievable home tasks based on what has been the focus on the classroom;
  • Clearly communicate expectations by providing examples and guiding parents in the correct procedure;
  • Clearly advising both students and families when homework is due;
  • Ensure homework is marked in a timely manner.​

Parents will: 

  • Be available to assist your child where necessary, and communicate any concerns to the classroom teacher;
  • Keep in mind homework is not designed to be a stressful task at home;
  • Advise the teacher by the due date if homework cannot be completed;
  • Support the establishment of a homework routine and ensure your child has enough opportunity to complete homework in time. 

Students will: 

  • Be an enthusiastic​ learner and undertake homework as part of their education;
  • Take ownership of their homework, which will be set at their level of achievement;
  • Be responsible for having homework returned to school by the due date;
  • Access digital learning programs where available, and appropriate, as outlined in the Homework Policy.
