Yes

Approximate hours of homework given

Primary Years: student learning does not stop when children go home for the day. There is an age-appropriate amount of reading that should be done on a daily basis. This reading can be done in English and/or the student's mother tongue.

Middle Years: students are expected to do homework if a required task is not completed during the lesson at school. Students can also complete assigned work during their study hall sessions scheduled twice per week, at the homework club on Monday-Thursday from 3:15-4pm and/or in a subject tutorial at the teacher’s discretion.

Diploma Programme: students should expect to do 2-3 hours of homework per night. This will need to become a habit which is supported within the family home.
