Homework
The school operates a Passport to Independence (also known as P2I) scheme for students studying Key Stage 3, as an alternative to setting homework. Under this scheme, pupils receive an assignment for which they have nine weeks to complete. Such assignments are set every half term for core subjects, and every term for others. This has proved to be a bigger success, as more students completed it than homework. Also, the school has a forum called P2I Buster. Created by students, it provides homework guidance from mainly students and teachers. Although this is strongly linked with Horndean Technology College, students from other schools are welcome to sign up and ask for help.
