Homework
Homework is set reguarly for all students at The Billericay School. Homework is set on Google Classroom and is also noted in the student planner.
Some subjects will use digital platforms such as: Sparx in Maths, Readingwise Literacy programme, Doddle and Seneca in Science where students will complete homework.
Doddle
Doddle is a web-based platform which provides schools with engaging resources for the classroom and a multitude of tasks that can be set as a homework. Students are able to access it independently to complete revision and extension tasks and thus helps develop important independent study skills. Parents are also able to access the site and can thus monitor the sort of homework that is set and its completion by their children.
You will find further information in this section about the range of resources on offer by Doddle and instructions for student logins. These can also be found on the school computer network in the L Drive Doddle folder.
