Ecole Elizabeth Ballantyne is the latest school to ban homework!
The new policy is giving children enough time to do all of their work in class! The principal, Michael Brown, believes that students spend a lot of time working at school and then have to go work extra hours at home. He wants his students to be at home spending time with friends/ family and playing (being children)!
This is not the first school to ban homework, and it seems to be a new trend.
According to some studies, homework has little benefit for children up to sixth grade!
So happy to hear about this move from Elizabeth Ballantyne. Hoping other schools follow. https://t.co/mEqHJy4UrX

Is this something you would like to see at your child’s school?
