HOMEWORK HELP GUIDE

Once your child is at secondary school you will know far less about what homework they have and you will have less control over what they homework they do.
This may sound worrying but actually it is a positive in many ways as it means their independence is increasing and they will have to take more responsibility for their work.
There is still a lot you can do to support them and set them up for homework success.

EXAM STRESS

Your child’s first set of serious exams comes at the same time as many changes and increasing independence. There is much to distract and impact our children from their studies. Exams can seem stressful no matter what our age but for our 14-16 year old’s this is also a brand new experience and their results really do have an impact on their future. That’s pretty intense pressure.
So how can we help them through this time and make it as painless as possible?
