Why this petition matters
Started by E K
- Doing homework may be a simple task that many students can achieve, but for students who miss a lot of school this might be even harder but for a lot of students who have cancer or other illnesses they have to miss even more school and have to keep up with their homework and their health at the same time.
- Homework disadvantages those from low-income areas. In many cases, it is only the students from high-income areas who are given homework because they have access to resources such as internet and quiet working space. This disadvantages others from low-income areas.
- Students spend hours doing homework, and teachers spend more hours checking it. Homework is, at times, a burden to learners and teachers, but it is necessary. While some people cast doubts about the effectiveness of homework, teachers and educationists are in agreement that it is important. Homework helps students get better grades, build their skills, and get their careers on the right path.
