The Homework Conundrum Synopsis

Homework has a key role to play in strengthening memory, building attainment and helping students to develop transferable, life-long study skills. If done right, regular, good-quality homework has the potential to bridge achievement gaps and help all students become successful, confident learners.

Rooted in robust cognitive science principles, this book provides a clear guide for how a successful homework culture can be built in a school and within the classroom. With a focus on making homework an integral part of teaching and learning, it includes practical strategies on how to get students, staff and parents to value the homework that is set, ensuring it is built into sustainable practice, so all parties can reap its many benefits. Chapters cover:

  • Parental role and involvement
  • Supporting all students
  • Rewards and sanctions
  • Motivation and attainment
