Homework starts in a small way in BSW's Reception year with word recognition and describing picture books. By the time a student is in Year 6 they are given a balanced amount of homework that incorporates the core subjects, as well as reading and spellings.

As students move up through the school, the time spent on homework will increase to reflect the growing demands of the curriculum and importance of assignments, particularly where study for external examinations are concerned.
