Useful Links
The children are encouraged to undertake a regular programme of revision alongside their usual weekly Homework tasks. This should be guided from information given to them as well as areas taught in class.
To help them along the way we have found some sites which they may find useful. Many of these are interactive and use brief tutorials or engage the children to use their knowledge through the playing of games.
