Cobar High School

Policies

Homework Policy

Students are encouraged to use homework diaries so that they have a record of assignments, set work and study.
Students must record all set homework and assignments along with the date required for completion and estimated time it will take for completion.
Diaries should be checked regularly by teachers and parents.
The homework and assessment policy for each subject is to be pasted in the front of students’ books.

Types of Homework

Practice Exercises – let students apply new knowledge or review, revise and reinforce newly acquired skills.

Preparatory Homework – students gain background information on a unit of study to better prepare them for future lessons.

Extension Assignments – encourage students to pursue knowledge individually and imaginatively.

Homework Year 7-12

Homework will help high school students develop habits of reviewing work undertaken in class.

Parents can expect homework to be set on a regular basis in each subject and that this will be coordinated to ensure students can complete their homework across all subject areas.

As students move into the senior school parents can expect that homework and study demands will increase.
