Homework

It is the school’s policy that teachers set work to be completed out of lessons on a regular basis to improve a student’s learning. For students in Year 7 to Year 11, we set homework electronically via Bromcom to enable students and parents/carers to easily keep track of it. Students and parents/carers can monitor homework that has been set via the Bromcom/MyChildAtSchool portal. Students in KS5 have homework set electronically via Google Classroom.

Students in Year 7 to Year 11 will also be provided with a student planner for use alongside Bromcom to access helpful academic information, eg world map, advice about keeping safe and mental health, school expectations regarding behaviour and uniform, to make notes and store a paper copy of their timetable. Parents/carers can use the planner to communicate with the school/Form tutor/Head of Year if required.

Parents/carers are given personal log-in codes via email to access Bromcom/MyChildAtSchool and you will be able to see the homework that is set for your child. If parents/carers have not received an invite email, please contact the IT dept at IT.student@st-bedes.surrey.sch.uk. (Year 7 will be sent towards the end of next week) Instructions to register for Bromcom/MyChildAtSchool can be found here.

The school library is available every lunchtime as well as staying open until 4.30pm each evening. Students are welcome to study here after school up until 4.30pm. After this time school is closed to students unless they are involved in an organised activity with a member of staff. There is also a homework club after school every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday until 4.10pm in G18 for students requiring extra support.

Below are the KS3 homework timetables (Year 7 will be set homework after October half term). KS4 and KS5 are set homework by their class teachers as required. These will be updated at the beginning of each academic year.

Homework timetables to follow shortly - once published they will be shown below.
