Drapers' Brookside Junior 10

Home Learning

Establishing good learning habits extends beyond the school gates, which is why at Drapers’ Brookside Junior school we expect pupils to complete some activities at home. In addition to their reading book, pupils should access our virtual learning platforms to complete their homework.

Home learning activities will be checked on a Friday, so any work completed on the platforms from the Saturday before will count towards their overall score.

The expectations for home learning in the junior school are as follows:
