Poll: Should primary school pupils get homework?
Give it to us straight. Be honest.
ON MONDAY, WE published an impassioned plea from a parent for the end of homework.
Eric Nolan wrote that primary school children would benefit from less time with the books, to be replaced with physical exercise and quality family time.
He makes the argument, believing it will help obesity levels and result in more-rounded young adults.
