Homework Club - Monday lunch time
If KS2 children are unable to complete their homework at home, time and space is available to them to ensure this is up to date at Monday lunch time homework club.
Children who have not completed the required homework for the previous week will be asked to attend. This club is also available to children to attend if they have difficulty with internet or devices at home or to help manage their time more efficiently and wish to attend. Through this club, we are helping children to develop independence in completing home tasks.
