Interested Maths teacher and Hod.
Would be good to know how much marking is done for set homework, do you mark it all, make solutions/answers available and then check students have marked their work, use Dr Frost? What sort of feedback is given, written, whole class or other?

Our aim is to roughly match the number of hours in class, so about 4-5 hours. Teachers set work for their class and there is structured Independent work that they do, independent work is completed in a ‘Green book’ which we occasionally check.

We give our students an a one period (40 mins with 10 ET) assessment every two weeks. I source questions from the Edexcel topics tests along with past exam questions, using all boards. I aim for 1.2 mins per mark to get them used to the time pressure.

We’ve been marking like this the past few years though for all mocks and end of year (Sixth form) we do blind marking across all subjects. It is an efficient way to mark, some loss of an overview for your own class though QLA can help, we also give a brief marking comment for each qu we mark.
