I did not go to school here.
Where I went to school there was basically no homework (except reading books) until I was eleven or twelve. Even then it was not much.
My child has just done KS1 SATS and I did no additional work with them besides school homework and reading.
Now it seems that other mothers are letting me know just how much additional work they did.
So far I have heard of:
- kumon classes
- tutors
- using booklets for scheduled sessions at home each week
- daily multiplication practise, etc
My child is very happy but I worry that by taking my homeland approach I have let them down.
Honestly and hand-on-heart what additional out-of-school work do you all do with your KS1/KS2 children? Please??
