Bradley Stoke Community School

Primary Home Learning

Completing learning at home helps children to process and embed what they have learnt during the school day. As shown in the table below, in the Primary Phase, we gradually increase the amount of home learning given to prepare children for their time in the Secondary Phase. 

Home learning information is sent out termly with the curriculum overviews and knowledge organisers for parents so they are aware of what their children are learning in school. 

Rewards are given to pupils to motivate them to complete their home learning. 

In EYFS and KS1, if pupils read aloud five times a week for a whole term, they earn a BSCS Bookworm badge. 

In KS2, when pupils have read 1million words on Accelerated Reader, they earn a special gold badge.
