In Years 7-11, learners will be given a minimum of one week in which to complete MHTs, except in Modern Foreign Languages and Mathematics, when MHTs likely to take no longer than 15 minutes may be assigned for submission in the next lesson. Over school holidays, only OLAs, open revision, and coursework will be assigned as homework. Learners can be invited to engage in one school co-ordinated project. In the two weeks prior to specified examination sessions, only open revision and structured revision OLAs will be assigned. Teachers will keep a record of homework submitted using the school’s e-homework platform. If learners do not submit MHTs, or if MHTs show poor effort, then responses will accord with our Homework Non-Submission Procedure.
