Number of hours private study/homework at AS and A2?
What are schools' expectations in this area? Would be very useful to know.

Ours state that same amount of time as spent in formal lessons should be spent in homework/further study (as a rough guide).

How many hours is that? Schools vary in their teaching hours. Thanks.
My DD gets 4 hours 10 mins of teaching per subject at AS, and is expected to do 5 hours of private study per subject - but the reality is that homework takes much longer than that.

I had a feeling you might ask that. I think they have 9 lessons (1 hour each) per subject over 2 weeks, but yes, generally homework takes longer. I think it's probably a guide to the minimum that would be expected in order to keep up.

We recommend 5 hours per subject as a rough guide.
