The Issue
Sparx is ruining teenagers mentel health and causing them unessary stress. You can't finsh your homework unless you get everything correct. Half the time the questions aren't even on what we leant in lesson. On the note of teenagers, there not lazy, we spend 8 hours and school and then get given 2 hours of homework to do. I understand that homework is nessasary for our education but I do think that it is running teenagers. Let's take last week for example, one of my best mates started crying because of how stressed out she was about school and homework etc. I'm well aware that crying isn't that serious but crying from school stress is not alright. We're not near our GCSEs yet (year 7 at the moment and year 8 in September). So here are some things we can so to find a better solution for school homework.
- Find a new maths program and make it alot less stressful (no bookmark checks, no pressure to get it wrong, getting actul help from it not just a video)
- Makes schools less stressful, alot of students in secondry schools struggle with mentel health for various reasons but at the end of the day it's caused by school.
