Rejected petition ban-homework
More details
Dear reader of the following
I am writing to you because the amount of homework children get is appalling, in Finland they don't get homework and their grades are much better than ours, they would learn everything they need in the lesson, so they wouldn't need homework, leaving children time to think for themselves.We would like the government to take action and stop homework as a way of making grades better and our children would be a lot better at making their own decisions
yours sincerely miss lucy winton
