Homework takes many forms and can include:
- continuation or completion of current work
- additional practice of skills or concepts
- preparation of assignments
- preparation for tests
- preparation for future work
Students may need to catch up on work missed due to excursions, sporting commitments, illnesses or other absences. The amount of time individual students need to spend on homework differs depending on the subjects they study. Homework is not given as a punishment. Not all homework is assessable.
Students should speak to their teacher if they are having difficulty submitting work by due dates.
