Homework
We believe that regular homework is essential to supplement learning in the classroom and to teach children the benefit of individual study. Each class has a homework timetable designed so each child gains the most from the curriculum.
Education Policy
Duncombe's strength is the happiness and confidence that each child throughout the school exudes in all areas of learning. The children love coming to school!
Duncombe offers a broad, balanced education that develops the whole child. Within small classes, each child's progress is nurtured and where specialist help is required, staff from our Individual Needs department support and mentor small groups on a regular basis so that every child grows in confidence and gives of his or her best.
By following the National Curriculum and exceeding it, offering a blend of academic, physical and practical activities to stretch, inspire and challenge, our pupils are well prepared for the move to their chosen senior school at the age of 11.
