At Forrester High School home study is recognised as having an important role to play in the education of all pupils. It should be a partnership between students, teachers and parents. It is an integral part of the total learning experience which should be undertaken outwith the classroom and seeks to:
- Enhance learning
- Improve attainment
- Develop organisational skills
- Develop good study habits
- Promote independent learning & personal responsibility
The Home Study policy aims to enable all students to become:
- Successful Learners
- Confident Individuals
- Responsible Citizens
- Effective Contributors

Hi,
I have been reading your home study policy, which is very informative but 3 weeks into S1 and I haven’t had the chance to see a Jotter nor homework at home, specifically in English, Math and Science, which makes difficult to understand what has been studied and how best parents can support their young people learning. Would you please be able to let me know who I need to contact to discuss your homework policy? Many thanks.
Thank you for your email.
This has been forwarded to the relevant person for their attention.
Kind regards,
Forrester High School
