Petition Details

Make homework optional in government run schools.

Additional Information

I find that the schooling system is ripping away students' free time.

They first have to go through 6 hours of hard, disciplined working, and then bring that working home with them to forcibly do in their free time.

This is forced overtime as they already dedicate a quarter of their day PLUS the trip to and from school and then have to do so for about another hour and a half.

If school is not a place to rest then home isn't a place to work. Sincerely, MT - a concerned student.
