Homework is designed to reinforce learning completed in class and encourage regular English practice.

Parents can support their child by:

• establishing a regular homework routine
• encouraging independent effort first
• practising spelling and vocabulary
• encouraging regular reading
• checking that homework has been completed

Parents should avoid completing homework for their child.

For more detailed guidance, including information about reading, Raz-Kids and home learning expectations, please refer to the Home Learning section of the Parent Handbook or contact the Manager for more support.

If there are concerns about a child’s current placement, the parent, class teacher and SMIS-English Manager can discuss the available options.

Any decision will consider the best possible outcome for the child as well as what is feasible within the programme.

Factors may include:

• English ability and learning needs
• classroom performance and teacher observations
• current placement
• availability of places
• academic expectations
• social and emotional development
• physical development and maturity
• independence
• suitability of the proposed peer group

A class change is therefore not based on English ability alone.

Where a change is not considered appropriate, other options may include differentiated materials, additional challenge, targeted support or continued observation.

Please refer to the Placement & Progression information in the Parent Handbook, or contact the school if you would like to discuss your child’s placement.
