Home learning has many purposes including:

- Extending school learning.

Family Home Learning
Each term, our Halley families will receive a ‘Family Home Learning Activities Flyer’, thoughtfully created by the Stepney Partnership Schools. Its purpose is to inspire our families within the local school community to engage in themed learning experiences together. Children are invited to share their family learning back as school, where we take pride in showcasing their achievements within the classroom and displaying their work for everyone to see.
