Petition Action

Abolish homework across all educational institutions

Petition Details

We believe assigning homework on topics already covered in class is counterproductive. If teachers can't complete lessons during school hours, it suggests they lack time or resources. Relying on extra assignments outside school creates unnecessary pressure on students, affecting their well-being.

Additional Information

We ask the government and Parliament to take action to limit homework on topics already covered in class. This practice puts unnecessary strain on students, affecting their mental health and well-being. Teachers should be provided with enough time and resources to teach effectively during school hours. Reducing after-school work will create a more balanced education, giving students time for rest, extracurricular activities, and personal development, essential for their overall growth
