Rejected petition Teachers to mark school homework for kids and give out homework.

The only link between school and home is homework. Parents want to know what kids learn at school so that parents can help and support their children at home with their studies. At the moment homework is given but not marked. If a child completes their homework and submit it, it should be marked.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The arrangements for marking homework are the responsibility of individual schools, not the Government or Parliament.

If you would like the Department for Education to issue guidance to all schools about this, you could start a petition asking for that.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
