At a transition day my son was given a 25 page booklet covering all subjects. There are a few simple pages, several projects and some tasks will involve several hours work. Overall I can imagine it being at least a weeks work (6 hours etc) Is this the norm? He's my first at secondary.

(There is also a spelling mistake and one awful sentence that barely makes sense)

Gosh. State or Independent? Grammar or comp? Never heard of this before. My DD was given a suggested Summer reading list on her transition day 2 years ago! Seems OTT.

DD is finishing yr7 & was not given any homework to do last summer. Is this a state school?
