Here is our homework offer for the year.
It is always a polarising subject with some families wanting loads and some none!
We are often asked how parents can help their children at home.
Three of the most important areas are:
* sharing a love of books and reading
* making sure your child is fluent in times tables by year 4
* talking to your child and developing social skills.
We are taking advantage of the benefits of technology in this area and have invested in a range of approaches.
