Homework - Maximise your success

At Castle View Academy we believe that quality revision/ homework can help students achieve the best success in their Key Stage 4 examinations. Homework that is set is relevant, challenging, and beneficial. All students are set homework/revision and are expected to complete it.

All homework/revision is set in electronic form using one of the following systems: Sparx Maths, Sparx Reader, Sparx Science and Seneca learning. These platforms will be the same throughout their time at the Academy and have a single sign on without the need for passwords.  

Year 7 to 9 

Each week you will be expected to complete homework for three subjects. You should spend roughly 30 minutes on each piece of homework. The homework will be set on Sparx Reader, Sparx Maths and Sparx Science each week and students will have a week to complete it.

We expect homework to be completed to the highest possible standard. If you are struggling to complete your homework, you can talk to your subject teacher or go to Homework Club in the library for extra support.

Homework is compulsory and 30 minute detentions will be set for each piece that isn’t completed on time.

Year 10 to 11 

Students will be set 30 minutes of compulsory homework from their 3 core subjects on Sparx Maths, Spark Reader and Sparx Science. Detentions will be set for non-completion by the deadline.

All other option subjects will also set weekly homework although at present detentions will not be set for these subjects.

All completed homework for all year groups will be rewarded. Rewards such as praise postcards, emails home, and other selected prizes will be used to incentivise and reward completion.
