Dear Parents,

The Year 6 team would like to clarify our homework expectations and offer some guidance to support your child.

If your child is finding their homework challenging, please rest assured that they only need to spend about half an hour on it. The goal is to reinforce what they’re learning and prepare them for the expectations of secondary school, not to create stress. If they encounter difficulties or need extra help, they are more than welcome to bring their work into school. We are available to support them before Thursday’s homework deadline, and we encourage them to reach out whenever needed.

Please also note that any consequences, such as staying in over break, are only applied if a child has not attempted their work. As long as your child has made a reasonable effort—even if the work isn’t completed—there is no need to worry about this.

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement at home. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us.

Thank you,
The Year 6 Team
