Homework
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills pursuant to the answer of 30 June 2005, Official Report, column 1702W, on out-of-hours learning, if she will ask Ofsted to calculate the proportion of (a) secondary schools and (b) primary schools that set homework consistent with the guidance set out in her Department's publication, Homework: Guidance for Primary and Secondary Schools.
- Answer
-
In their evaluation of the quality of teaching and how well pupils learn, Ofsted inspectors assess the effectiveness of a school's use of homework in reinforcing and extending what pupils have learnt at school. We have no plans to expand Ofsted's responsibilities in the monitoring of homework provision in schools.
