Home Learning Policy
Home learning is an important element of the curriculum at Abbots Farm and we conducted a thorough review of the process in 2018 in consultation with staff, children and parents. As a result of this process, we created a home learning policy to clearly set out expectations and support families. Please click the link below to view the Home Learning policy.
Year 6 home learning is in line with the rest of the school in Autumn term but then changes to help pupils revise key content for their SATs tests in the Spring term.
Safe Internet Searching
Please remember everything you have learnt in your online safety lessons when using the internet for home learning and don’t forget to use our recommended ‘safer search engines’. You can find links to them all below:
○https://www.dkfindout.com/uk/ (great for subject specific information such as animals)
○https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/search (searches all BBC resources)
To complement the compulsory elements of our home learning, we also set termly home learning projects containing different cross-curricular activities linked to topics being covered in class. Following consultation with parents, we decided to continue to provide this as an optional element of our home learning to allow children and their families to engage with more creative tasks and wider curriculum areas at home if they wish to.
