Homework
At Oasis Academy Leesbrook we are enthusiastic about the importance of home learning. To be able to fully understand and retain new information and knowledge, our young people will need to practice and further their skills at home.
All Home Learning tasks will be recorded on Microsoft Teams.
‘There is an established link between the home learning environment at all ages and children’s performance at school’ (Education Endowment Foundation). Therefore we expect all students to spend a minimum amount of time on homework each evening and parents/carers to support with this.
What are knowledge organisers?
Knowledge organisers are essentially a list of the key knowledge that pupils need to know for that upcoming half term or topic area and will be frequently used for homework. The purpose of providing students with knowledge organisers is to give them the knowledge they need to know in advance of the lessons. This should allow them to access vital knowledge ahead of lessons and importantly, help parents support their child with their learning at home.
