Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

I don't fit into that :p but I guess homework at primary school has changed since I was at school too. So maybe that is the case now.

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

EQUALITY - that lovely thing Labour preach on about :D

Bright children probably benefit just as much because it teaches them discipline at home. Nobody is perfect at everything no matter how...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

They shouldn't ever have books in front of them all the time. They don't make homework difficult for primary school children, it's all stuff they've done in class already, so they'd only be like that...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

And how do you think they feel when they do rubbish in class because mummy and daddy don't believe in doing homework?

You can tell the difference between a child who gets help at home and a child...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

And to add to that, I just thought of a lovely scenario of what is wrong with someone else doing that for you.

Imagine you send your young toddler to the child minders, not such a strong speaker...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

So your child minder has a more active role about the most important part of your childrens lives than you do. Does that not make you sad?

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

Most children who have had an interest from their parents don't need to be sent, they go willingly. University is the best place in the world :D

I can't believe that you think you don't need to...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

In that case then, never send kids to university, because they wont be able to apply that mentality there.

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

Well I have very young brother and sister who I take an interest in. My brother gets taken to the library regularly and I check my sisters homework when I'm home.

Am I going to get to 30 and...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

I guess everyone can't make time for their childrens education. God forbid we take a break from accyweb to guide the next generation. They can just go on the dole after all if it doesn't work out...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

I assume you have time to speak to your child though and ask whether they are happy? Does homework not come into the general first conversation of the day you have with your child once you finish...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

I don't think I came from a specially well resourced family, I just got sent home with my reading books, words to learn on pieces of card and spellings and times tables. What more do you need?

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

It is only a GOOD thing if it is highlighted which children are and aren't getting help at home with homework. Teachers can then speak to the childs parents and encourage them to take an active role,...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

Well I think it's very important and I would NEVER suggest stopping reading or spellings and timetables. It's very important that people like you think that homework is beneficial, as it has other...

Re: Should Homework Be Scrapped?

What I will add to that is that a lot of the problem is the poorly educated parents who didn't necessarily get such a good education in their day. Not all parents can read and do maths as easily as...
