Teachers will let parents know if additional homework would be helpful or
appropriate for an individual child.
9.3. Holiday Homework
As a rule, we do not typically set holiday homework for children. However, to keep
skills sharp, families may like to:

Write and send postcards to family and friends;
Keep a holiday journal;
Start a holiday blog online;
Read every day just for fun;
Go to a place studied in class (a museum, the forest, the seashore etc.);
Take part in charity work or an environmental campaign.
9.4. Tutoring Policy
Our days at Al-Hamra Integrated School are very busy and productive, ensuring
students are supported and stretched across our broad curriculum. However, some
families may wish to hire a tutor for aspects of their child’s education and our
teachers may suggest short-term tutoring for your child in very specific areas. We
would ask the tutor meets with the class teacher to discuss the child’s needs.
However, Al-Hamra Integrated School staff is not permitted to tutor any students
privately.
