so NO as i said before primary school age kids should get NONE
I know what you mean Panther. My youngest is very clever at reading/writing and Math's. He does lose concentration at home, and makes silly mistakes that he wouldn't normally make.

Mine get Homework every Wednesday, written homework. Then they get a book to read over the weekend.

I make them do it, course I do, but I don't agree with it.

When I was at primary school, we didn't get homework. When i went to high school, I felt all grown up coming home for the first week saying " oh yes, I just have to go to my room and do my homeworks" it didn't last long like, but it's because it was new.
