Petition Action

Make homework optional for students.

Petition Details

Homework will still be compulsory to set still.

"Multiple studies have found that most students are getting too many extra assignments, leading to sleep deprivation, unhealthy levels of stress, as well as related health problems" - Huffpost.

Additional Information

If you love homework, you won't keep having people ask you for the answers.

"From kindergarten to the final years of high school, recent research suggests that some students are getting excessive amounts of homework.

In turn, when students are pushed to handle a workload that’s out of sync with their development level, it can lead to significant stress"
- Healthline

"The researchers reported that family fights about homework were 200 percent more likely when parents didn’t have a degree."
