To ban homework in all schools across the UK, Northern Ireland, Wales & Scotland.

Additional Information

To make kids happier in life, as many are going through depression because of how much stress they have with the load of homework they get set every few day. Schools try to "help" with mental health when they are the ones causing it by homework, making students stressed as they are in school for around 6 - 7 hours per day, wanting to get home and rest but no.
