Home learning
Small Haven School works closely with parents to ensure every child makes the best progress possible. We understand that families lead busy lives and that getting your child to learn at home can be a challenge. However, reinforcing learning at home can help your child thrive within their education.
The benefits of Home Work are: -

- It helps your child to get ready for the next day’s class.
- Homework helps your child learn to use resources, such as libraries, reference materials, and computer Web sites to find information.
- It encourages your child to explores subjects more fully than classroom time permits.
- It allows your child to extend learning by applying skills to new situations.
- It helps your child integrate learning by applying many different skills to a single task, such as book reports or science projects.
- Homework helps parents learn more about what your child is learning in school.
- It allows parents to communicate about what he or she is learning.
- It encourages parents to spark their child’s enthusiasm.
- Homework encourages your child to use time wisely.
